Interesting, as you say goods work, but I'm not sure 4 rivets in aluminium is quite enough to hold them in with......
I like the fibersteels, but i'm only slowly coming to terms with the price!!

You could try Martin & Walker, they did fibreglass replicas to order that were very reasonably priced

Are the gt seats just wider than a Speedster seat aswell as the foam you sit on??

Winston,
Dan had a pair of the tip-forward seat bases for sale at Hedingham; can put you in touch if interested or they're likely to be at the swap meet if it goes ahead
Cheers
Hugo

They are bare shells that I had upholstered.
Try contacting Barrie (904GTS).

Hi Ian
I hope you are safe and well ?
I think I need to pop over in the new year to have a sit in your 356 !! Your interior is exactly what I want to do with Silvia. As long as the speedster seats work for me !! I already have the oatmeal carpet set / rubber mats and coco mats !
I think those seats will finish the interior nicely !
Anyway, have a great festive period and I hope to see you soon
All the best
Jeremy

These are the Simonsen shells that we had trimmed for a 356’GT’ build

Blimey, that's very beige.......
I really must focus my thoughts and actions on this sub-project..... My car is black leather with grey-salt and pepper carpet: I assume 'German square weave'. Is this available easily by the metre in the UK?
Happy Christmas, Winston

Still dithering over this question.......
1) does anyone have any experience of these?
https://intatrim.co.uk/products/speedster/
and
2) does anyone know if there is, or has ever been a headrest option on the standard GT/Speedster seats?
