As title really I have some bucket seats to fit to an old series 1 trialer but theyre really deep backs which means (as always with 80 inches) that you have no leg room whatsoever. I am using the original clutch a defender brake assembly and a home made throttle pedal. With these seats there is no leg room at all.

Any suggestion of seats would be handy If not series III seats will be fitted but I think will be useless being thrown about if it ever gets comped.

fitted a set of cobra bucket seats in my 90 (need a bit more room than is available with the truck cab) they are a fair bit narrower in the backrest and base (bloody uncomfortable though without a cusion :D)
will check on the model tomorrow and let ya know if you need it
 
just priced up my V8 bits and its looking like the best part of £300 so seats may well have to do or use series ones or pick up some dirt cheap
 
i'll take a picy of mine for you tomorrow , a mate of mine might have something kicking about (if yer not fussy condition wise?)
 
Condition theyre gonna get destroyed after a couple of events lol the 2 i have here are quite good too good really. if you don't mind a pic would be grand!!!
Cheers

series seat bases are 12 quid base and 12 quid for a back but i bet it'll be hell bumping around a comp safari course especially being leafs anorl
