Hi everyone, I'm looking for a new set of seats for my MGC GTS. I want to put something in that looks appropriate for the car, and is in the style of the period. Head rests are a must. One option is to customize a set of proper MGC NA seats, which I can do, but I wouldn't mind something more supportive.
Potential problem: The MGC has an odd seating arrangement. The seat sits to the outside out the steering wheel partly due to a wide transmission tunnel. I installed a set of late model MGB buckets and found the wheel was off to my left (RHD car) quite a bit. It was very awkward. With the standard road seats I find myself sitting to the side a little to correct it but you can't do that in a racing-style bucket.
Anyone have any ideas?
Also, I want to put in racing-style belts. I'm thinking 4-point of some sort. Recommendations? Will they annoy my wife in the passenger seat?
Here are photos of the interior of the car. Any suggestions on how to mount the belts in a non-obtrusive way? Thanks for any thoughts!
