Wanted front and rear seats for a gp mk1 lwb superbuggy. May have to splash out on new if nothing About.
Thanks
PM Gary ( BIG GP) he usually has MX5 seats that will fit nicely, and make your own for the rear ;-)up
go for grp/plastic seats for front and use marine ply or exterior ply for the base of a rear seat.
front seat wise you have 19 to 20 inches squab width as a maximum or they will be up against the body and tunnel. MX5, smart car and suzuki cappuccino are production seats that fit and there will be others. then you can look for heated or headrest speakers etc. I always use cloth as it saves jumping in on a hot seat with your shorts on burning and then getting out quickly however then they cannot be wiped dry so swings and roundabouts.
fibreglass buckets with covers are a buggy standard and rear seat as said marine ply, foam and material or leather cloth with a stapler for diy manufacture.
I got a set of mx5 seats, a bit tatty but usable. £40 pair
And they have the speakers in the headrests

I have a friend who converts mx5 to something in kit form but the seats are surplus. That's why they are usually cheap as it's a token gesture or they get binned
That is useful to know as we may need another pair depending on how the current job goes.

You can get good quality covers but I can see if my contact has any mint ones available
Jumping in here, Gary does your mate have any runners as the ones from Hazels have non fitted. Cost including p&p required if he has some.

I'll have a word with him. I thought they did have runners on them when Hazel took them from me🤔
I can ask her again although I did comment on picking them up.
Yes please!
