Well at the front of the seat where the handbrake is situated space isnt amazing there will be about 8cm gap at the least and perhaps a 14cm gap at the most. But i can measure if you are generally truely intrested in percise measurements.

It most certainly is Gives me that extra bit of leg room that i would achually lose by putting a centre console in

They are extremly comfortable arent they. Leather isnt all that good though. They can be slippery sometimes and on a hot day it like your on a radiator ha.

They look great. The same seats i had in my 156, i really liked them! I would be interested in pics of the subframes and how you mounted them. What is the access to the back like? do you have tilting sub frames?

I havnt finished the subframes as such yet. But currently am using a metal bar which attaches to the orignal mounts for the seats and the back is just set up on wood ha. But i am going to solid mount the back with something like a extra crossmember ? or something like that.

In all honesty its not a problem to get people in the back but by the time you have the seat in a comfortable possition etc there is very limited room in the back so i just say no to passengers in the back ha. I dont have tilting subframes unfortionally but i do plan to make some

Hope that answerd your question and i will post up some pictures when i have the time to get some

How the hell did you put a cd player in the heater or has it replaced it? Cheers
