Hi, I'm not too far away (Bristol/Gloucester) so could collect probably? Got a question though, what is the width of them in relation to original seats, just thinking about access to the handbrake? also what about height?
How hard would it be to mount them? What kind of brackets would be needed? (I don't have any idea!)
Also access to back seats? What's that like?
If you want you can text me for a quicker reply - 07871044855.
Cheers!

collection is fine by all, postcode is EN7 so google maps is your friend 
as for width the seats are 20 inches wide, there shouldnt be any problem with clearances. for height they shouldnt be any higher than standard mini seats but obviously depends on your method on mounting them, if you take a look at my mpi project (link in sig) where im fitting rx7 seats im mounted direct to the crossmember using some seat belt anchor plates welded in. you could possibly just weld on some tabs like the standard mini seats and bolt into the standard mounts on the crossmember, options are endless, should be a seat thread in the styling section where you can see all the seats that have been mounted in a mini and some pics of how people have mounted them to, always worth a look
access to the back seats, will have to check as i cant really remember, pretty sure it was just the passenger side seats that folds forward and room as usual, will get in down in the garage tomorrow and check with my shell, can even post some pics up so everyone can get a general idea of what they're like
