The Type MR is an entry-level 345mm reclining seat in a vinyl and cloth-centre trim. Part number SS 75, £236.60 single. Three colour options: plain black, black and grey, or black and red. The cloth centre panel runs down the backrest and seat base, giving the seat a different feel from a fully vinyl finish and a slightly warmer sitting surface on a cold morning.

At £236.60, the MR sits between the Type Z Carbon (SS 16BC, £214.50) and the BS2 (SS42, £265). The Z Carbon is a reclining seat on the same bolt pattern with a carbon-effect vinyl finish for £22 less. The MR has the cloth centre where the Z Carbon is all vinyl. The BS2 steps up to a wider shoulder shape and a fibreglass-reinforced backrest for £28 more. The MR is the middle option for drivers who want the cloth-centre feel without moving to the more aggressively shaped BS2.

The grey accent option is useful for a neutral interior where red or blue stitching would look forced. It is one of the few seats in the 345mm reclining range where a grey colour combination is available without going to a tartan.

Steel frame, base mount, 345mm x 280mm bolt pattern, sliders included. Reclining, double-sided adjustment. Road and Track approval, all heights and all waist sizes. No headrest. Works with a 4-point harness.

Auto Style seat size guide

Auto Style make one size of every seat. The buckets suit a 32 to 36 inch waist, the two small ones go down to 28, and the recliners take most drivers.

How Auto Style size their seats

There are no Standard and XL versions. Each bucket is one shell and our product data bands it: nearly all of them at 32 to 36 inch, with the Type K5 and the Type K12 Small at 28 to 32 for slimmer and younger drivers. The Type BS7 is the tall bucket for drivers over 6 ft; the BS6, BS8, K5, K12 and Zandvoort suit drivers under 6 ft.

The reclining range is all one size and suits all heights. Three of them have published dimensions: the Eco Lux is 510 mm across the base, 540 mm across the shoulders, 550 mm deep and 910 mm tall; the RS6-II is 530 mm across the base and 560 mm across the shoulders; the Pro Luxury is 470 mm across the base and 600 mm across the shoulders.

Price pointAuto Style seats are the entry to the range and the bolsters are softer than a Cobra or Corbeau at the same waist. If you are at the top of a band and want to be held, look at the BS7 or step up a brand.

Measure yourself first

Four numbers decide whether a seat fits. Take them in the clothes you drive in, and write them down before you compare models.

AWaistAround your natural waist, not your trouser size. Trouser sizes usually run an inch or two under the real figure, and the waist bands on our product pages use the real one.

BSeated hip widthSit on a hard chair with your feet flat and measure straight across the widest point of your hips with a rule or a straight edge, not a tape that follows the curve. This is the number that decides whether a fixed shell is tight.

CShouldersStraight across the back at the widest point. Fixed back seats hold you here, so a shell that is narrow at the shoulders is uncomfortable long before it is unsafe.

DHeight and torsoYour height, and if you are over 6 ft whether that is mostly leg or mostly body. A long body needs a taller shell with the head support set higher.

Before you order

Check the car, not only the driver. Transmission tunnels, door cards and B pillars are what stop a wide shell going in. Our seat mounting and fixing points guide covers what to measure.
Side mount and base mount shells are not interchangeable. Which one you need depends on the car and the subframe, so pick the brackets at the same time as the seat.
If you run a HANS or plan to, filter on HANS friendly. The shoulder openings are cut to clear the collar.
FIA seats carry an expiry date on the homologation label. Check what your championship accepts and how long the seat has left, particularly on discounted older stock.

Send us your measurementsWaist, seated hip width, height and the car. We have fitted a lot of Auto Style seats and will tell you honestly if the one you have picked is going to be tight. Call 0115 989 3488 or email Sales@GSMPerformance.co.uk.

Waist bands and heights are our product data, checked 6 September 2026. The Eco Lux, RS6-II and Pro Luxury dimensions are Auto Style’s own listings.

Will I fit in this seat?
The maker lists no driver size restriction on this seat, so it suits the full range of heights and waists. Those are the paper numbers; how a seat actually feels to sit in and climb out of is a different question, and our showroom team sit in these seats every day, so call us with your height and waist and we will give you the honest answer.

What do I need to fit it to my car?
You need the car-specific frame for your vehicle, plus a sliding runner for fore-and-aft adjustment. Tell us your car and we will quote the complete fitting kit in one go. Our sliding runner guide covers the adjustment side.

Does it recline like a normal seat, and what about armrests?
Yes, the backrest reclines, which is the whole point of a sport recliner over a fixed bucket: support in the corners, comfort on the motorway, and access to rear seats. Armrests: not fitted on this model.

I am a bigger driver. Will it work for me?
Possibly, and it depends on the exact shell rather than the brand. We wrote a straight-talking guide on sport recliners for larger drivers from real showroom fittings, and if you send us your waist and height we will tell you honestly which recliners work at your size.

Availability

Two stock positions, and they are very different

Auto Style seats are produced in batches and imported into the UK and Europe every 12 weeks. What that means for your order depends on where the seat is.

Showroom stock is roughly 4 days. Distribution stock is roughly 3 to 4 weeks.

Stock rotates constantly

These sell quickly once a batch lands, so a model that was on the shelf last week may be on the next container. Contact us for the precise position before you order and we will tell you which of the two you are in.

In-store displays:

We have a premium range of over 125 seats from brands including: Bimarco, Cobra, Corbeau, Sparco, OMP, Recaro, GP-Race, and Bride to name just a few brands we work with.

Alongside this, we also stock and display HANS devices, harnesses, race-wear, race-suits, FIA helmets and various other safety equipment. If you are looking to visit us to see and try any particular seat or product, please contact us in advance and we’ll be happy to help.

In-Store appointments:

Due to the specialist nature of our services, we do ask that you please contact us in advance to book an appointment. We have multiple slots available each day including selected availability at the weekend.
