Here's Ewan trying out the Jag XJS seats I recently bought. Still got to work out the fitting but I reckon a simple square subframe about 4 inches deep should suffice.
Have to say on first impressions they are very comfortable and offer a good deal more support than the Triumph ones.
They appear to have started life in different cars, as they are each a slightly different colour and have a slightly different grain to the leather. Not a problem though.

Nevermind the seats, how the hell did you get a fully equipped kitchen in your 2500S?

Wait 'till you see the on-board Jacuzzi.

Actually, did you ever see that car in the 'States that a couple of crazy blokes built, which could run continuously and never needed to stop. It even filled up whilst on the move and if I remember right they could even change a wheel without stopping. Gonna have to search for that now.....

Keep us updated as to how you fit them. Would like to fit them to my car. :)
