[6pack] TR6 Seat Dimension

[Foster, Stan]

Tony, while width at the widest point of the seat may be a factor I think that
width at the rear of the seat is going to be the critical dimension as my
experience with the Miata seats is that they just fit between the B post and
the tranny tunnel and while the front of the seat might have a bit more wiggle
room (and will probably be the widest dimension) the rear is critical as it
needs to be able to pass through this gap betwixt B post and Tranny tunnel to
allow the seat to slide all the way back.

I have a set of standard seats and Miata seats in the basement and a naked tub
if you need anything measured.

My son has come across a pair of seats from 2001 Eclipse that look really good
... my car is at the paint shop so I cannot measure the maximum width of seat
that can be fitted in a TR6.  I know that a Miata/MX5 seat will
fi:t: does anyone know if an Eclipse seat will fit in that space.  I measured
the TR6 seats that I have taken out and they are 21" at the widest point (they
may well have been more narrow at an earier point in their lives!).

Thanks, Tony Gordon
