Ive seen a few posts on here regarding different types of seats for the minor,Saab, Metro,maestro etc,

What would be the best/easiest replacement seats to suit a 2 Door Saloon?

What parts Would I need? runners to fit them etc?

Cheers Mark

The choice is very much up to you and will depend on availability. I have fitted what I believe are Maestro leather seats which I have found to be very comfortable.
Make sure that your chosen seats have a backrest forward tilt facility or you will not be able to access the back seats.
I used Newton Commecial seat adapter frames, cost me a damn site more than the seats but the end result was well worth it.
Now, how do you paint grey seats to dark blue?

Get some Dark Blue Leather PAINT??

If you're doing the front seat, rather than all, then anything is possible as long as they fold down for rear access.
If you buy an off the shelf fitting kit, any seat is 'simple' to fit.
My preference of all mentioned is the Saab seats for shear comfort and quality.

With the metro seats, recovering to Minor spec cloth or leather is very common. I never recovered the Saab ones so can't comment on the ease.
If you're planning to do front and rear seats then it'd better to follow advice from those that have done it - when it comes t rear seats I'd only be guessing.

Seatrs are a matter of personal choice. Best advice I can give is pop down a scrapyard and try a few 'in wreck'. Aim for Saab, Rover & Metro, Ford as they are known replacements and bases are available.

I have fiat abarth seats, black and red to suit the colour of the car, looks great and comfortable.

i have a set (2) of 209 gti seats they came out the yellow pickup (see them on minormania just serch for badobsession)
also have done CRX seats they fit well in the black pickup at the mo...
