As mentioned before............ What is uncomfortable?

Also..... What is your budget?


The sheelman seats are AWESOME, but you pay a whole load of dosh for them. I like the mesh seats, but at just short of £700 each I am not convinced. I have also considered the Killer seats but postage would cost more than the seats!!!

In the end I worked out what I wanted. I decided that the lack of support is what I don't like about the XS seats (plus I have back issues which don't help). But due to a million financial outgoings because of overland prep, I decided to try and change the seats for as little as possible. I searched around and found Sparco reclining seats for €400 each which included runners and VAT. But I thought I might be able to get some even cheaper so kept looking on the used car sites as there are loads of performance cars being race prepared and the old interiors sold on

In the end I have bought a pair of Mitsubishi Mirage Recaro seats in great condition (Bolsters in perfect condition) for €150 the pair. I am having then re-trimmed in XS half leather pattern for €250, and then will have to make a mount so they fit the Land rover runners and the optimum height/ angle (I am still tempted to just buy the Recaro mounting frames).

So all in all, I have a set of Recaros in pretty much new condition for €400 (£340) which the missus loves because they are soooo comfy.
