I went to Shell Valley and bought their fibreglass seats used in COBRA KITS.

I think it was about $100 for the pair.

WYOTECH upholstered them very nicely.

A local shop could likely replicate mine for $200-300 for the pair. I
fabricated some simple brackets, put lightening holes in them and powder
coated. Excellent results!!!     photobucket.com/ambro

But what about the Miata Seats and UNCLE JACK'S (design) Conversion KIT?

We are doing another production run of these kits, due in two weeks, btw.

I've got the whole dash and windscreen off my '71 TR6 replacing the wooden
dash
nd the crash pad. The seats are out and need to be rebuilt. My problem is cost
ffective money to rebuild the seats. Moss Motors has probably the nicest set
on
he market but covers, foam, and misc doodads are over $2000.00 plus having a
hop do the work...dang near $1500 a seat... ouch... VickyBrit has a set for a
ittle over $1000.00 with pads, and doodads... We spent $5000 on a complete
soda
lasting and respray of the original paint last year (the car has never been
recked or damaged,ever)... the car looks like a million bucks... just having a
ad time justifying $3000 for new seats.... I've even looked on eBay this
orning and there's a company building new aluminum rally seats with your
choice
f color for the $350 range each... Any ideas FoT?
