NA Aftermarket Seat options?
What aftermarket option are available for the NA MX5? Half the NZKW ones don't fit or they are made for tiny people... I'm quite tall and at the same time not the smallest bloke.. Any heads up would be great?
I'm also wondering the same thing REDBEN. Not buying NZKW's cos you get what you pay for. but looking at Racetechs. I think the RT1000's fit, but the one i've sat in was super narrow. more keen on the wider RT100 for street use....
Damn these small cars!

Also the shoulder bits are super wide on most too. Some nice Bride Reclinables would be great! however another Big wednesday goes by with out my name on it...Bwarp wrote:I'm also wondering the same thing REDBEN.

pfffft Brides are last weeks news. They're too hard to buy genuine ones and they're overpriced. Atleast nobody makes a copied Racetech!
and people generally buy them for wank factor as you can pick up an equally FIA approved Racetech for half the price!

How about we make this a " Show us what you have fitted seat thread"
Will give everyone a idea what what fits.
I,ve got a race seat in mine,Got it from Japan,Not sure of brand,but fit's nice in the car and i fit in it good,Medium height,80kg...ish
I should check it out further for branding,only thing in can see is a DLUCK sticker on it,Doesn't look factory to me.

I'm in the same boat dude my backs quite wide too, most seats are good for the little people but not big kiwi blokes.... and anything that does tend to fit us doesnt fit in the mx5.Denz wrote:Any sugestions for other cars seats that fit in (im cheap) and are good for a larger person, im not fat but my back is quite wide and goes past the edges of the seat
I have put a Jamex seat in mine, fixed back, only $200 (well was, dunno if they have gone up) only just fits in.
There are two sizes, small and medium, surprisingly the small doesn't fit, as it has wider shoulder wings, so you have to get the medium. Then it is the joy of modifying the brackets to get the seat rails on.

I bought a used set of Momo T-Club that are very comfortable. I did "adjust" the shoulder wing slightly on the exterior side to get the reclined position back further but they did fit fine prior.
Cardwells do a really nice Sparco that fits for about $675.00 from memory. I haven't bought them because I really want to try it in the car first and I am to chicken to ask them if i could try it in the car park....
I too would be interested in those or another set of MAZDASPEED Seats!!!
