Hello again everyone.
I have seats from a '70-72 MGB intalled in my '67 by a PO. Is there anyway at all that they can be modified to accept seat covers made for a '62-68?
Thank you
Darrell

The seats are shaped differently, and the earlier ones don't have head-rests. Anything can be made to fit, but you probably wouldn't like the outcome.

Depending on your budget, you can get really decent seat covers pretty easily - some inexpensive, some definitely not. Generally good quality either way.

Thanks.. I figured the frame might be a different shape. I can do without the headrests. I can either find earlier seats to recover or recover these. Whichever would be least expensive I suppose.
