The seat is slowly subsiding leaving a pain in the posterior on journeys above 30 miles.
Should I swap the front seats (giving the problem to my passengers)
or buy a repair kit from Exmoor Trim;has anyone tried this?

I have bought one of these from Exmoor Trim and will fit this in a matter of weeks... I will let you know how it works.

The only thing that still worries me is that the 'net' (it looks like some sort of net) below the seat which holds it in place when someone sits on the seat is torn apart... This means that the seat is sagging down, does anyone have an 'easy' fix for this or can you buy this as a sparepart?

I tried fixing mine with no luck. Nearest I could get was wrapping some cable ties around the seat frame. Didn't work too bad but not as comfy as the RR classic leather seats I replaced the knackered ones with! Had a quick look about and couldn't find a replacement part so it's either, scrappy, cable ties or replacement seat.

But then again, it's not unknown for me to be completely wrong.

Hmm, guess I`ll have to work out some ingenious solution then

I`ll try to remove the chair somewhere in the near future to see how it fits together exactly, maybe that'll help.

tnx for thinking with me.....

ps, the smaller ass is a good one, but somehow I don`t think it`ll work since the lowest part of my seat is now in the middle, the smaller the ass, the more you will sag down...
