Does anybody know where to acquire reasonable front seats for a Morgan 4/4 four seater, I have Restall seats fitted as standard to my 1983 4 seater unfortunately they are getting a bit tatty, I would like to replace them with more modern a version, looking on line the only narrow seats appear to be cobra or Racaro which are definite no-no in the looks department, I know you can buy modern ones from Morgan dealers but the cost is slightly prohibitive, any suggestions will be most helpful

I think that the Standard Width may be too wide for a Morgan. I wish they would put the dimensions on their ads.

Why not have your old seats repaired/ modified/ upgraded/ retrimmed by the likes of Allan White oppressed Melvyn Rutter, or a local specialist?

The Mazda mx5 has a narrow cockpit and the seats have been used in classic tr6s. Lots of details of the seat width are available on the Internet.

thanks for the information and advice, however my Morgan is a four seater and the seat needs to be folding/reclining and be able to move backwards and forwards. any more suggestions would be most grateful
