Hi, I'm in a hurry to get a pair of front seats for a last model Type 3, that uses the '3 point' mountings/sliders. I am led to believe these are the same as SuperBugs of the same era?

My squareback just failed a blue slip (RWC) inspection with the only (and completely crap) set of seats I have in this style. All the spare sets I have of the older style are not helping me today!

Alternatively, if anyone has a pair 'for hire' for Tuesday 21/6/11, I can get rego and set about to repair the set I have.

I'm in Sydney (inner west) and happy to collect from just about anywhere in Syd. I can also arrange freight/collection from anywhere else, for the 'right' set (in case anyone interstate has mint pair they want to sell).

PM or email to vince@atomic.net.au

Thanks in advance.

I've got cars throught blue slips with bad seats with creative use of foam and gaffa tape, covered with a thick set of seat covers tied on in a way that makes them difficult for the inspector to remove. This might be worth a try. 😵‍💫
