Which seats?

Post by Borntoolate »

I recently bought some SAAB 9000 CDE seats for 9.00 on FleaBay. Very nice too.
I fitted the passenger seat to my T25, and to my horror, the seats are too high! Theres not much I can do, its just htat their bases are too thick, a little like their new owner!
How's about some recommendations on luxury car seats that will fit without my head being squashed against the roof and my partners feet dngling hopelessly above the pedals?

There's been various discussions on this, have you had a search through previous posts? Might find something useful there..

ive been down to the local scrap yard today and bought some seats from a toyota space cruiser, i paid 25pound each for them. i will recover them in cream leather and orange piping. put them up against the seat runners in the van and they are only about 10mm out, which is no problem. ill have to take off the old seat runners and mount some new brackets on to fit the seats.
