cszjrh Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 I've gone for the 37cm seats (narrow car) so guess at least I can lose a bit more weight before squeezing into them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peet Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I have JKs with orange piping too and they are superb! I have the drivers on the optional base with OMP runners that fitted straight on and the passeger bolted straight in. I cant reccomend then enough!

DerekJ Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I was looking to get some JKs. fo my upgrade so time for a couple of questions... Are they as comfortable as people say?How are they on long rides for a fat old sod like me?Which ones for an early 90's wide?How much for a pair with padding? Anyone regretted installing them?

Cheers DerekJ I'm sure there'll be plenty of us with them at Stoneleigh for you to try out.I drove from Anglesey to Bury non stop last year and felt fresher than if done in my tin top or SWMBO mx5. But everyone's different so do try. If you can get to JKs premises Jordan has all the sizes to sit in. Have a thorough measure up of your cockpit and he will give good advice. I have 39 seat 45 shoulser widths in my SEiW but could have fitted 42 seat width in drivers side if it had not been for SWMBOs short legs requiring seat long way forward. Tillet are also highly praised seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cszjrh Posted April 26, 2014 Author Share Posted April 26, 2014 These are my new ones. Very impressed with the finish, especially given they are a low volume specialist item. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Faulkner Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Very nice, i might just have to add those to my shopping list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Frankland (T3OMF) Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Had these in my car for a few years now, they are very comfortable. The wife and I even drove down to Monaco and back in them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long Rides, as comfy as any other seat, Wide body will take the 4246 seat ok for the driver and passenger as long as you have the narrow trans. tunnel. Price , have a look at their website. Regrets, none. Photo of mine with the single padding-- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norman Verona Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Just for clarification. Are the JK's fibreglass and the Tillet Carbon? I know Tillet do make FB but most buy carbon, don't they? The JK's do look good. My Tillets are kart seats with low backs. They aren't sexy but are comfortable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
