Hi Andrew,
Not quite sure on the first question, I believe (but could well be wrong) that the 5 studs were fitted on very late 2002 S1 models, onwards.
On the retrim, I had a seat done for £80 but that was supplying the leather which the previous owner had bought with the car - so right colour,etc
regards
T

According to "Morgan 100", the chapter on improving the Aero 8 states that the centre bolt was replaced for the Series 2 cars. Due to difficulties in torque management for the original set up.
You might be right that there was an overlap.

There was an overlap on 2003 cars, a fair few late s1s had 5 stud.
