MK Seat pics?
Anybody got any photo's of MK's seats, unfitted?
I was going to buy some Triton seats but he's not responded to my u2u's, so I'm hoping MK's are the next best thing.
I'd just like some pics showing their base, back/base and the runners/mounts they come with.

MK Seats and runners. I'm probably going to use some rubber bushes or something rather than the runners because my wife and I have the same
driving position, so no need for adjustment:

Ray: Hm... identical to the MK ones, unless what I thought were MK ones are GTS ones, but I presume all GTS ones have GTS on them?
I liked the idea that the Triton ones were double skinned on the bottom/back-bottom.
Edit:
Steve, thanks thats exactly what I needed to see 
Looks like I'll get a set of them
Thanks guys.

And yes - I was caught in the garage one sunday afternoon, sat in the drivers seat (unfixed) with the steering wheel in my hand. In my defence,
though, I was testing the driving position and not making racing car noises (the radio should have drowned that out hopefully!)

I sat on the floor of mine for the first time on Tuesday night, after completing the dashboard. Blinking uncomfy hence the idea to get seats
Steve: I did post in the middle of your pics, but in case you missed it, thanks again.

Plastic bag and expanding foam for me

I also find the seats are especially good for sitting while playing Gran Turismo on the playstation as a stop gap until they're needed for the
car!
I was thinking about the expanding foam thing, but my wife will want to drive as well (until she realises how fast it'll be!).

Is that the new or old price? I used the online price list to make my shopping list, but they'd put the prices up a little (not by a massive
amount though - 3-5%ish max)

It's the currently list on their website dated 'from 1st March 06.'
Bit naughty if they've put up prices without updating the website.

They probably have changed the prices then - I used the list that was attached to the old site.
But like I said, the prices have only changed in line with inflation (roughly), and by the time I'd put a list of just about everything I need
from them for my build, we came a nice round figure anyway!
