Every Cobra classic-family Tartan edition seat we stock, the eight tartan designs they come in, three diagrams for measuring a small classic cockpit before you order, and the one 291mm runner that fits the lot.
A Sylva Fury owner sent us six cockpit measurements and asked which of our narrow bucket seats would fit. Cobra Roadster 7, Mirco SX5, SX6 and LS sized against a real Fury, with every dimension drawing.
A customer asked for runners only to fit a Recaro Profi SPG XL in a Porsche 964. Here is why the shell needs three parts, the exact stack we supply, and what the whole thing costs per seat.
A 3 inch and a 2 inch FIA harness are not two versions of the same belt. The shoulder width decides whether you can run it without a frontal head restraint, and the lap width is a separate choice again. Here is how to pick, with the OMP, Sparco, TRS, Schroth and Willans ranges laid out side by side.
A customer asked what “Brackets included: Seat only” means for his 1972 Alfa GTV 1750. Here is the full parts list for fitting the Cobra GT3 Historic pair to a 105 series coupe, and the two mounting routes every classic uses.
Every universal seat sliding runner we sell, with the handle widths, the three bolt patterns behind them, the 25mm they add to your seat height, and which seats each one goes under.
No seat maker publishes how far their head supports reach forward, so Cameron measured every shell in the showroom. Internal depth, external depth and width for 13 bucket seats, with diagrams showing why deep and shallow suit different drivers.
The five reclining sport seats we rate for the air-cooled Porsche 911, 1966 to 1998, with the Cobra, Sparco and Planted Technology frame routes split by build year.
A customer asked how to fit Corbeau PSR seats into his MX-5 Mk1. The PSR is a base mount recliner and almost every bracket sold for an NA is a side mount, so here is the one route that works, what it costs, and why there are two versions of it.
The original Sim-Lab P1X gives you two 40×40 rails and no seat bracket. Sim-Lab publishes a rail spacing for seven seats, four of them Sparco. Here is which seat fits, and the 290mm pattern that never changes.
Five genuine BRIDE seat rails for the Suzuki Alto Works HA36S, which rail suits which seat, and nine seats we stock for the car: three steel FIA, three fibreglass FIA, and three of BRIDE’s own shells.
Every Safety Devices roll cage we hold for the Rover Metro, Metro R6, 200 and 216 GTI and Rover 25, with part numbers, prices and the approval each one is listed under.
