[TR] [6pack] Miata Seat Conversion....

[Tony Drews]

I've got 3 kits left, and it sounds like Joe and Sean Alexander is 
taking over production after that.

They are $59.95 plus $10 shipping for both seats in the TR-6.  They 
use the seat adjusters from the Miata.  The seat is low enough that 
depending on the seat pan you may need to dimple it a little.  It 
allows the full range of adjustment.  All of the bracketry is powder 
coated, and it comes with enough nuts / bolts / washers to perform 
the full install.  Of course, you need to source the Miata 
seats.  From what I've read, the earliest seats to the latest seats 
all have the same mounting pattern - the Miata guys grab seats from a 
late model car for earlier cars.
