And external dims please. And is fixing a bolt straight threw job then?

Pat

Inside dimensions are:
405mm at the front going down to 395mm at the back. The return edge is 25mm wide each side and could be trimmed down if needed.

Cheers
Mark

Cheap and cheerful for those on a tight budget and who have maybe made their own chassis. so would be an easy thing to knock up a frame like those found on karts to mount them....two at the bottom two near the top perhaps.

Ok, I'm confusicated (nothing new there then)
Are these a new design? If so do you have pictures/costs?

Oh, Has anyone tried f/g seats in an offroader? Could they crack from a large arse/heavy landing combination? Comfortable or is padding required for that kind of hooning aboot?

Iank bloke.
My seats are used in the Hotbuggy, a fireblade engined buggy....mad is the only way to describe the thing or just look here...www.hotbuggy.com.
No padding just a 6 point belt to really hold you in, oh and a good idea to wear a crash helmet.
The buggy I drove only had a CBR600 motor but it left me with wobbly legs and unable to undo my crash helmet for a few seconds....shaking with fear/excitement all in one go......awesome fun and every garage should have one

Yep a new seat, a cheap n cheerfull no frills seat no belt slots no built in fixing points so will need some ingenious metal wizardry bits to fix them into a car...
