They look like they would fit nicely in a Mini without too much hassle

I agree, you could bolt them to the cross member, then the rear brackets look ideal

I'm currently looking to get some new seats for my Mini but wondering how easy it is to fit these or any other non-mini seats? I'm guessing it's not as straight forward as taking out the old and bolting in the new...?

All non standard seats will need some amount of fabricating. Not the hardest job in the world, but would take a couple of hours I expect.

What kind of tools are required? I'm fresh out of uni into my first mini so I'm yet to get fully equipped and practised for the more hardcore tasks. :)

You may only need a simple socket set to fit them or a complete workshop with welding equipment...? I haven't fitted these seats into a Mini before so don't know exactly what is needed.

Really easy to do, you just need some angle iron a mig welder and a decent 10mm drill bit.....
