aftermarket seat options

hey guys, I want to change my seats so I can get an inch more leg room in the locost. What are the fibreglass ones like? The type with the foam cushions on them? Ate they comfy ish?

Westfield race seats are not too bad if you can find a second hand set

I have a pair of fibreglass seats, drove to Nurberg Ring no problems 1200 mile round trip, and I have a bad back. I found them to be more comy than Cobra seats

They are very comfy. they offer good support and the hardness really does not show.

if i build new i would go for unpadded GRP without concern

What about the MNR fibreglass seats? How do they compare to the Triton and JK seats?

I would get the other options but I find they are both hard to get via email, and the new Triton reseller is useless at replying..

MNR on the other hand reply overnight! (and have affordable shipping costs - very important when shipping big items around the world..)
