A Planted Technology seat bracket for the Mazda MX-5 Mk4 on the ND chassis, 2016 onwards. Part number SB248.
The Fiat 124 Spider and the Abarth 124 are built on this platform in the same factory. If that is what you have, send us the registration and we will confirm.
The ND is smaller inside than the NC
Mazda deliberately went back to the size and weight of the original for this generation, and the cabin came down with it. There is less room than in the car it replaced.
Which is why headroom is the usual reason people fit a shell here. Put a helmet on in a standard ND and you are against the roll hoop and the header rail before anything else becomes a problem. Getting properly low is what makes the car usable on track for a lot of drivers.
Weight matters more here than in most cars
An ND is around a tonne, and that is the entire basis of how it drives. A heavy steel framed shell gives back a meaningful slice of it. Ask us about the lighter options.
Tell us your height. Side airbags are fitted.
Have you written anything useful for my car?
Yes: Corbeau PSR Seats In A Mazda MX-5 Mk1: The One Bracket That Takes Them, and Top 5 Bucket Seats For Your Mazda MX-5 Mk4 (ND), And One Kit That Fits Them All. Those are written around the same car, from real fittings and customer questions, so they are worth a look before you decide.
Will this fit my car?
This frame is made for the Mazda MX5 MK4, MX5 ND. Chassis code and years matter more than the badge, as floor pans change between generations, so if your car sits near a changeover year, send us the registration and we will confirm before you order.
Which seats does it take?
Check the bolt pattern in the specification against your seat. The Compatible seats tab above lists what bolts straight on. If your seat is not listed, tell us what you run and we will confirm the fit.
Do I keep fore-and-aft adjustment?
Only with a sliding runner between the frame and the seat, which is a separate part on Planted frames. If more than one person drives the car, budget for the runner. Our guide to sliding runners explains the options and widths.
Is this for the driver or passenger side?
Both sides are available on this listing, pick driver or passenger side at the point of order (sides listed are for right-hand-drive cars). Left-hand-drive car? Ask us, as the sides swap over and availability varies by model.
