[Roadsters] Question about aftermarket seats

[Ronnie Day]

I looked at them, then reconsidered when I saw the prices. And they're
listed in euros!. Not sure what the exchange rate is, but I'm just sayin'
..., to borrow a phrase from Rev. Deitz. I have a set of Miata seats that I
was thinking about using in the roadster, but I think they might work
better in a 510. Plus there's no provision for a 5-point harness. I'd think
they might not live nice with your roll bar, either. Have you looked a
Cobra? They might offer something narrow enough and with slots for a
shoulder harness.
