ok its a problem getting any decent seats to fit in the buggy and have a low seating position so whats in yours and how far back and down are they fitted. any pictures of yours fitted in would help me and others.
types I thought might fit are MX5, BMWZ3, ??

The Jas has MX5 ones with speakers in the headrests to save speaker fitting. great seats the Kango is getting a pair sometime as the mazda seat slide angled mtgs straighten out and fit pretty easily.

Yes

Not much bigger than the one piece moulded buckets to be honest, but heaps more comfortable!

They would mount a lot lower than I have them, but where they are is where I found them the most comfortable.

we have 6" from floor to top of bolster at the front as I fitted packing uder the front, the rear is bolted straight to a flat bar welded across the old seat tub dips so the rear is about 3 inches from floor level to bum rest. the front would go lower but it would not be as comfortable at 6' 6" I still look under the screen frame. There will be other seats suitable though just get what you like the look of.

I thought about those too, but think they might be a bit snug if you want to have them on the floor.
Although, Ratitude has them
