1300 seat modification
« on: February 10, 2012, 02:16:04 PM »
Hello everybody,
  I have wanted for some time , to experimate with altering the drivers seat on my 2003 1300.
However I am reluctant to bastardise the seat that I have because it is in its origional condition.
 I was wondering if anyone has a , damaged, disused ,or u/s seat that is surpulace to their requirements.
I would be happy to pay something , and of course the postage costs if anyone has a unit that is not servicable or needed by them.
 I want to try to lower the height, and the width, by reducing the amount of foam padding, this probably means changing the type, thickness, and density of the foam etc.etc. so it will probably take a couple of trys to get it right for me, so you can see why I dont want to modify the standard seat that I have, as in all probability I will stuff it up, and I feel that I might need the origional seat again.
Thanks again.
