Spotted a nice pair of Mazda Miata seats at the local wrecking yard, wonder if anyone out there has put them into a MGB and how they fit/look? Any comments? Should I get them while I can, $60 for the pair If I act quick.
 
I'd jump on em,

Wait what year were they from?
 
Yes...a fairly easy conversion. Ditto with Fiero seats.

Does it matter wat version of Miata the are from?

I've heard that the earlier Miata seats work better..but I do not know why.
 
I was just curious. I know the Miata is getting bigger with each version. I assume the seats are wider also. I don’t think I have seen anyone use the surf board seats from a version 2 in this type of conversion.
 
Also thinner, later seats are not as comfortable as the originals. Bob
 
Got these out of a 92 Miata for $30 for the pair, now just have to figure which MGB I want to put them in. Hey, they even have a place in the headrest for speakers (someone grabbed them already. But I got the seats!

You got a steal.

Go to Best Buy (etc) to get speakers....3-1/2" maximum diameter.

I'll bet the wiring to the speakers is still intact.
 
Actually, check out Paul's site . He completely redid his with cool new stuff
