Neil H Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Looking at organising driving the Westy to them to try out seats. Can't get any replies to e-mails or voice messages. They still trading? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidersurfer Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Take a look at his signature on Locostbuilders. It appears his daughter is now making the seats? Linky below: http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?tid=168723 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidersurfer Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Or maybe not making them according to this thread? http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?tid=166956&page=2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil H Posted October 10, 2012 Author Share Posted October 10, 2012 Many thanks cidersurfer - looked as if something wasn't right. Will have to consider some alternatives. Just wished they'd update their website or answer-machine with something - to prevent wasting time. Cheers again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rory's Dad Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 You could have a run up to Southport to see JK Composites - they are beside the seaside after all. Rory's Dad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil H Posted October 10, 2012 Author Share Posted October 10, 2012 @ Rory's dad. Yes, JK are other ones I'm considering - almost 500 mile round trip though :-( Need to find someone in my area that may have the wide ones fitted - the N4246?

markcoopers Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Have you tried David on here for a Tillet seat instead...... So much better and worth the extra in my opinion, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CL290005 Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 These look very similar to Triton seats http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pair-Of-Lightweight-Carbon-Racing-Bucket-Seats-/230862028558 There was a guy selling copy Triton seats on ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil H Posted October 10, 2012 Author Share Posted October 10, 2012 @ Mark. Must admit, with my "large size" most GRP buckets seem too tight. :-( Triton Wides were almost spot-on when tested in an Elise, but possibly 10mm too wide for the Westy! Could do with something that has just a base and back with no side support. The Tillet B5 (Elise\Exige) seats look like just what I'm after. So pricey though. Though if they're the only things that I can fit in.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SootySport Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 JK do the 420mm. wide seats and they are really comfy, even for us big boys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CL290005 Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Triton wides fit as I have these in mine, if you look at the ebay link picture I attached, triton seats (not sure if others do this) have the rolled edge removed off the seat on the lower section (they are moulded like this for extra clearance) and fit into atleast widebodies, I think they would fit narrows also based on my clearance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tillett Car Seats Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 @ Mark. The Tillet B5 (Elise\Exige) seats look like just what I'm after. So pricey though. Though if they're the only things that I can fit in.... Mark we are the largest Tillett stockist in the UK. We have all the seats in stock and one of each on a stand to try for size. We also offer discounts to WSCC members. We are based in Edenbridge Kent so not too far from Reading. If you fancy popping down best to double check a day when I am there. I am also in the warehouse some weekends working on my Westfield if that suits you better. I actually have a B5 in my car if you wanted to try for size in the car. Our office number is 01732 865 635 or PM me if you want more info. Regards David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Jackson Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I was intending to by Triton seats but was unable to contact them too. In the end I bought Tillet seats from David, and was so glad I did - they were soo much better and well worth the cost. Customer service from David was fantastic too.
