I fitted the mud risers and leather seats from an RX8, very pleased with them. I bought export trim seats originally but they were just too small and I wasn’t overly impressed with them.
Maybe you could include more support for the seats in a single loop type roll over protection and include the top mount for the seat belt. Might be a bit spendy though😄
TBH, that seat back would last about 5 minutes as it is. A brace is a must have, but, by the time you fiddle around with a brace, you would be better fitting proper defender seats.
Could I call about the VAT Free purchased through the HM VAT Free program for US Service members? Lots I want but have to go through third party vendors.
I'm not sure that legally you can use those seats as I'm sure it says somewhere in the MOT handbook about if a certain standard is met at time of manufacture you have to maintain that standard, like not fitting seat belts because the seat your putting in is from an earlier model, maybe someone knows more.

"Full Metal Bracket", the unsuccessful sequel to a good movie.

Excellent series of videos! Would this solution work for a 90 with a bulkhead?
Yes, absolutely
I used to have a stage one v8 csw which had the bar behind the seats
I'll have to try and find some pictures
So you're just reengineering the seatback bars from a 109 station wagon? Wouldn't it be easier to just find the originals?
Yep that's the plan. I'm pretty sure they're obsolete but worth a look
