Eventually got round to fitting...well only 1 of my MOG's complete with schroth harness. Will be leaving the standard seat in the pass side except for trackdays, as theyre quite hardwork getting in and out.

As you can see also have alcantara interior and a few more Carbon bits Although the blue is no where near as blue as the pics!!

Those look very similar to the tillets I had in the caterham, which were surprisingly comfortable even on long trips

I was quite lucky i think. Bought them off a member on seloc who had some brackets machined to offer some different rake to the seat, which bolt to some MOG fixed rails from MSAR. Drivers side has gone in fine. Having a little difficulty with the passenger side, but will be cured by removing the sill pocket and putting it back in place once in.


Done around 100miles road driving in them now and are very comfy! You feel a very small amount of extra vibration, but hardly noticeable and no back aches at the moment. Just awkward getting in and out!! So looking at a snap off steering wheel aswell

Blue alcantara and biscuit leather imho

I think its the pics, the alcantara looks pretty much black, and has a very slight blue tint in certain light. Not quite sure how the camera manages to capture the colour like that!!


Forgot to add removed some extra weight at the same time

Standard seat with runner -11.5kg New seat with fixed rail - 3.1kg
Bulk head sound deadening - 2.4kg
Drivers inertia reel seatbelt - 1.3kg

Although put back in 2.4kg with the harness bar and unsure of the weight of the harness.

Overall a weight saving of around 8.5kg

Looks ace Something that is a little contradicting in my eyes is having hardcore CF seats to save weight and then having extra carpets

[drgoatboy]

They look like you have them mounted a long way back? Do they give you loads more room?

Where can you buy these new in UK?

MSAR sell them, as do TMS(on their site) and a few other elise/vx specific shops. Just need to ring as theyre not advertised on their sites

__MSAR__ Worth ringing and asking about sizeing and various options, mine are carbon/kevlar

[theotherjonnymac]

Look fantastic and fair value by the look of things.
