Re: GT Seat questions
Interesting, as you say goods work, but I'm not sure 4 rivets in aluminium is quite enough to hold them in with......
I like the fibersteels, but i'm only slowly coming to terms with the price!!

You could try Martin & Walker, they did fibreglass replicas to order that were very reasonably pricedWinston Teague wrote:I like the fibersteels, but i'm only slowly coming to terms with the price!!W

Re: GT Seat questions
Are the gt seats just wider than a Speedster seat aswell as the foam you sit on??

Winston,
Dan had a pair of the tip-forward seat bases for sale at Hedingham; can put you in touch if interested or they're likely to be at the swap meet if it goes ahead
Cheers

Re: GT Seat questions
Hi Ian
I hope you are safe and well ?
I think I need to pop over in the new year to have a sit in your 356 !! Your interior is exactly what I want to do with Silvia. As long as the speedster seats work for me !! I already have the oatmeal carpet set / rubber mats and coco mats !
I think those seats will finish the interior nicely !
Anyway, have a great festive period and I hope to see you soon
All the best
Jeremy

Re: GT Seat questions
Blimey, that's very beige.......
I really must focus my thoughts and actions on this sub-project..... My car is black leather with grey-salt and pepper carpet: I assume 'German square weave'. Is this available easily by the metre in the UK?
Happy Christmas, Winston

Re: GT Seat questions
Still dithering over this question.......
1) does anyone have any experience of these? https://intatrim.co.uk/products/speedster/
and
2) does anyone know if there is, or has ever been a headrest option on the standard GT/Speedster seats?
