I like the look of these seats, Does anyone have them in their car?
Also can anyone see any reason they wouldn't fit in an indy?
Do the seats have to be marked to pass an SVA test, Would they be ok for motorsport or do seats need to be FIA approved?
Click me
Thanks,
Mark.

So the MK seats are £350 a pair??![]()

You've still got to buy the runners for the other seats though...... Although I'm not sure the ones on e-bay can be fitted with runners
without a lot of hassle.

Looks like the Ebay ones only mount solid to the body, but I'm not too worried about that bacause I'll be the only one driving the car.
I'm guessing the MK seats need runners to be mounted, Don't know how they'll fit otherwise?
Those seats are not double skinned like the mk ones,you pay for what you get.
The mk ones also have mountings built into the base,which makes fitting simple,I have mounted mine fixed to the floor,with no runners,also I think you
may find those seats are a bit two wide for the Indy
Go for the MK one's...wish i had,
they will fit
they are strong
they do them in differant colours
and there NOT £350
mk ones ,great seats
Rally design are planning on doing these MK type seats later this year, should be cheaper than most others.
Hi if the cars being used for motorsport You did say in the original post.
You will find that a £60 proper foam seat offers much more support than any of the fibreglass ones. And the foam seats are a perfect fit to the car
and you are a perfect fit to the seat. And weight wise come in at 3.5 kg.
Just taking the light weight carbon seat out of the car i am racing this year as it weighs in at 5 kg with its mountings
Cheers Matt
use the MK seat mark in kawasaki green with carbon tops and black backs a perfect match for your car.KOOL AS

High sided smoothy's,Low sided smoothy's, low back smoothy's are £95.00 each or £180.00 per pair. The wide beasts are both £105.00 each
or £200 per pair...and all shine like shiney things and no flex.
All can be mounted direct to the floor or fitted to seat runners.
Made to order but now doing them every day Monday to Friday we are making in roads to turning orders round real quick...Saturdays are my playing days
or will never get the "mad beast" done but folk are welcome to visit if they don't mind the smell of resin and the odd bit of organised
chaos....
Cheers, Mark
Where abouts in Cornwall are you? I'd like to sit in the seats ideally?
Also IF I wanted to use runners which runners do I need to fit your seats?
Hi yes but your seats offer no support where it is needed for a competion car. Where as the proper foam jobs are a perfect fit and offer all the
support you need and for £60 if we are talking LOW COST.
However i know there will be some proper carbon seats available for less than £150 by the middle of 2008. And the tillett ones are not a £1000 they
are more like £350 And are a little bit better than some available. TILLETT LINK
Cheers Matt
Reverie seats are a grand for carbon unless I made it up???....£350 is still mad money for a seat....
Carbon splinters when wollaped so I wouldn't fancy being sat in one...bad enough working with the stuff as the splinters are horrendous!!
Our seats have plenty of support, perhaps not as much as a custom made foam jobbie but certainly in same league as the Tillet jobbies and at half the
price...
Based just outside Penryn near the looney double roundabouts on the A390.
Cheers,

Hi i no that £350 is overpriced for a proper carbon seat thats why some one is going to be doing some the same quality as the top end ones but for
£150 soon.

That seems very cheap. I'd be worried that they're not up to the job!
A good test is to grab the seat once fitted to the car and try and twist it...some do...!
Imagine giving it the hullygully into yer fav bend and the seat flexes making it feel like you are sliding..
Mark
Hi i wont say more until the company has them available but it ain't carbon mods.
And yes they will be up to the job .
Cheers Matt
