I've got the carbon mamba's in mine also, but more importantly I got the Subframes made by z cars. Some subframes are as heavy as the seats, but the z car ones are really light. The seats are from there also.

TANGO,

One size fits all i think, I'm a sixteen stone gym fanatic and dont have any problem getting in. Chris will advise you at z cars, maybe there is different sizes, Not sure a bigger seat would fit in the car though. The subframes were extra and bolt straight to the seat, the ones that come with the Mambas are quite heavy, cretainly heavier than the carbon seats! the lighter z cars seat subframes are £50 per seat from memory.

Hope this helps

they are good because they are so small so give you that little bit more room,

Well took the plunge and got 2 recaro seats from tweekies. Now I am having fun trying to fit them. Anyone got any pics of their mountings.

Thanks in advance.

I think you will struggle to get those side by side to be honest, you may have to stagger them a little

here is what my old car was like
