Morris Minor Owners Club

Hi
Does anyone have experience or knowledge of what seats I can use to upgrade the front seats in my minor saloon
Best regards
Chris

See the Rover 200 seats going FREE in the FREE section!!!

i wrote a newsletter for the custom and modified register on alternate seats, if you would like a copy please drop me a Pm with your email address.

Before throwing out your original Minor seats, and fitting something that takes up more space in the car, try a seat that has been refurbished with new foam, webbing and padding. Makes a world of difference over saggy knackered upholstery!

Yes but if the car is to be used as a daily driver head rests may be a good idea with today's traffic in mind.

Cheers for the replies folks
I have already refurbished the seats but was thing of getting some seats with head rests and adjustment on the seats as the present seats are non adjustable

Metro seats used to be good but now are getting hard to find. A lot of people are going for Ford Ka seats - either in fabric or leather. Whatever you choose you will have to make a sub frame so they will fit the floorpan of the Minor.

N.B. Make sure you buy the correct ones (4 dr or 2dr) for your car otherwise they will not have the "lift" handle to allow rear passengers to get into the back (2dr)!

I have fitted Rover 200 front seats to my 69 Traveller.Fitting was not difficult with 2" aluminium box sections. The seating position is excellent and a bit higher which suits me. I removed the cover off the Rover rear seats and with minor adjustments they fitted neatly over the rear Minor seat. Not much leg room in the back, but the dog does not mind!

............ and with minor adjustments they fitted neatly over the rear Minor seat ...........

No pun intended!
