Title: Leather race seats - sad story

I bought these Leather reclining bucket seats for a bargain £400 a pair (including runners) and looked forward to fitting them all week.

When I finally got the rex into the garage on Saturday, I found that they didn\'t fit - the seats are just a tiny bit too wide, maybe an inch or so :(

I\'m sure they could be modified to fit, maybe removing one of the recline adjust wheels (there are two, one either side), or doing something with the frame.  But after a frustrating couple of hours head scratching I\'ve given up and the seats are going back.

At the moment I\'ve got a Mazdaspeed driving seat and a standard passenger seat.  I\'m now back to the drawing board trying to find another Black Mazdaspeed seat for a reasonable price.

Failing that, I\'m going to buy two standard seats.

Any importers reading this, PLEASE HELP!!  Someone must be able to help get me a Mazdaspeed seat!

(It wasn\'t a good weekend) :(

Hey bud,

Where did you get those seats from?  I need some nice recliners for the RS.
