best comfy alternative seats for beetle
Looking to see pics of diff types of seats people have put in a beetle. I have a 76 beetle with original seats in and whilst they are comfy I do agree
that they are bulky and a narrower seat would suit better, but I am not willing to give up the comfort for looks. So if anyone can show me some
piccies of good alternatives it would be much appreciated. good excuse to show off you interior of your car

I also have Honda seats, from an integra or prelude, I can't remember. When my website starts working again I'll post a pic. I bought them from Mark
Gibbs panel house at Slacks Creek for $150 the pair.

I just have beetle seats
which are OK... but as said they are really too wide..
I've heard of many people using Honda seats...
overseas many people use Porsche seats
as a lot of Porsches must crash in the US & UK...lol
