Best to pay someone to do it if you dont know what your doing, they are holding you in the car after all.

thanks bille

Repco has some pretty reasonable sports seats on special at the moment, Autotechnia $299.00 a pair .
Holden Astra seats appear to be good size too but Mum won't allow me to remove one from her car to check mountings will 'translate'.
Important to check seat height (MB is quite low) & width - most of the smaller cars are worth looking at with Suzuki sourced seats more likely to be close with mounting holes.

If you can get cappuccino seats they would be mint...
I was looking at them ages ado but couldnt be bothered looking any further into it as i picked up some cheap 2nd heand sports seats, no idea what brand.

We're going to try some Hyundai Excel seats. Reasonably comfortable, plentiful, cheap as chips and the 3 door ones flip forward to give good access to that huge space behind the seats.

Let us know how you go...

Top marks for thinking to go for coupe seats I could have pointed it out, part of the reason I need to ditch the Colt seats I have in mine is they do not flip forward.

I gave up on my rear parcel area when I installed fixed back seats.

Over the years I have tried all kinds of seats in my utes and the ones that worked out the best were:

80's Mazda 323
80's Honda CRX
Autotechnica recliners

Swift GTi seats don't work if you're tall (6'+) because the base is too thick. I tried them last year in my spare MB and my head popped out the sunroof.

I'm 6 ft 3, gti seats a no go.

Billie, no wonder that mate of yours looks sooo short

lol

i cant find any seats for sale on ebay or places

I have mid-late 80's Toyota mr2 seats in mine. Good fit and headroom not a problem. Have to bolt a couple of flat bars to the sliders and drill for original floor mounting points but not a huge job. Should of course be engineered.

If you still have your original seats, Why not get them re-trimmed .That's what i did.Save's all the probs ...............MANNY
