MX5 seats now fitted to my 1303s

I’ve now managed to get a decent pair of seats from U-Pull-It in Inverkeithing to replace the very tired and shuggly original 3-point seats in my Beetle!
I had to modify the MX5 seat frames slightly and fabricate some brackets to enable a good secure fitment to the floorpan seat rails.
This also meant that I didn’t have to change or remove any of the 3-point fittings so, if required, the original seats can easily be re-instated!
I have a few pics of the seats after fitment which I’ll try and upload.
I’m very pleased with the result as these seats are much more supportive, adjustable and comfortable!
Great advice from member Keith to use MX5 seats! Thanks!

I’m a fan, nice compact shape ideal for a beetle at reasonable cost.
