Basically wanted to know if they fit easy enough (width etc) I know I'll have to adapt them in , I'm mainly concerned with the dimensions of the seats and clearances etc.

Seats look like this

Barls is correct.
They fit very nicely, and are excellent seats. I picked mine up for $150 the pair.



This is my old dash, before the V6 went in, but the photo shows the gap left between the seats for using the handbrake

i put prelude seats in my super they fit well and are very comfortable,when i did mine i set them up on a double slide so you could slide them back untill they touched the back seat or forward to the firewall

Sorry for hijack SAS...

How hard is it to modify them to fit??

Edith may need some new seats, so I am looking at alternatives for her....including modifying some. I can ask some one at work to help (if I beg) but I'm wondering about whether or not they need an engineers cert as well. Any one know?

It becomes so confusing after a while...

yes they do need an engineers, and before anyone says just do it with out remember that the insurance company will wipe your policy in the event of an accident if the can find the slightest error on your behalf
