Hi Guido,

I've got the whole process documented on my site
http://tr6.danielsonfamily.org/MiataSeats1.htm

Make sure you get the early Miata seats as the older ones get too wide to 
fit without modifying the frame for the top. I made up my own brackets and 
then worked with Joe Alexander on his brackets.  In the seat installation 
section, you'll find a reference to brackets that A.R.E. (Joe Alexander) 
makes but these won't fit a right hand drive car using seats from a RHD MX5. 
Joe had a customer try and they had to modify the brackets to get it all to 
fit.

The other advantage to finding early MX5 seats is that they have a cut-out 
in the headrest for speakers.

Hello,

I'm a Belgian reader of the Group.
I like to put Mazda MX5 seats in my TR250.
Can anybody tell me how I should fix them in the car?

Sincerley,

Guido Van Oppen
