GBS grp seats

As it says on the tin. These seats came with my Westfield, I have subsequently fitted seats that look better but have a 5th strap inlet hole essential for competing.

Whats good about them

* Fits a Westfield or any 7 style car (except Sylva's and the like)
* Has adjustable low profile runners but they can be removed only bolted on.
* Is trimmed to satisfy the trackside scrutineer (they don't like sharp edges).
* They have the swept back style so don't need seat belt voids at the bottom.
* I have a receipt from the previous owner in 2012 for £165. Since then they had £40 of seat runners fitted (by me).
* Seat pads fitted at extra cost.
* No obvious defects. No cracks in the upper seat belt area (where this type of seat are prone to damage).


Bad points

* Very basic seat that is manufactured poorly at the rear (where it cannot be seen).
* They have one or two scuff marks from use.

Grab yourself a bargain.

These seats are awkward to ship as the shape is akward. Would prefer them to be collected. But if you insist I will get a quote.



£100

Sorry not a buyer, but I do have some seats the same and was wondering where the seat pads came from?

They were marketed by a company that has gone out of business now. I have been looking for them for another car with similar seats.
