Sometimes it's best to walk away and come back another day. Well done! Go and have that pint.

Now that my engine and bonnet is back together with all new heat shields I have a front strut brace I no longer need . It has a carbon effect too it. Before I stick it on eBay are there any MX owners who would like it£20 ?
Could deliver to stoneliegh if you don't fancy postage or why not take a drive out?

Well. It only seems to be working

I thought there would be a rush for the brace so I sat back.
I'll definitely have it.
Please bring to Stoneleigh and it will save you wrapping and posting.

New seats arrived today, look great.
Spent several hours making brackets so I could use the Mazda runners 3 hrs later trial fitted one of them, too feckin big!!
The seat fits but I don't, it sits too high

I'm gutted

Drummajor · #**111** 5th March 2016, 17:12

Did you manage to lower the seats Drum?

Drummajor · #**113** 5th March 2016, 17:38

No

Going to go with option B
Return the seats and re trim my originals

Roadster · #**114** 5th March 2016, 18:09

How about option c

I used these - flatlands also sells them with different style covers.
Very comfortable and look the part
The retrim must be about this price

Drummajor · #**115** 5th March 2016, 18:15

Roadster, did you fit them to your runners?

Yes , very easy
They are fibreglass buckets, flip them upside down measure and drill 4 holes, bolt to the runners with countersuck machine screws.

Then fit the padded covers.
They are very light compared to other aftermarket seats

Drummajor · #**117** 5th March 2016, 20:37

The only issue I have with ALL seats is me, at 6ft 6 and over 18 stone I'm quite limited to what fits. Hence the other seats(which I loved) weren't for me

Roadster · #**118** 5th March 2016, 23:34

im only 6ft but wee weigh the same
The driving position will have your head behind the screen

Drummajor · #**119** 6th March 2016, 07:50

Could you send me a couple of pics of them fitted to your car?like to see how much space there is around the edges
Thank you

Roadster · #**120** 6th March 2016, 07:56

I will have to fire up the old pc - all the old pics are there
