Series 1.5 seats

[Tricky1.5]

Help......
I have turned my attention to the interior as I wait patiently on my body work to be completed.
The seats have been completely disassembled. I have no idea how they go together other than two piles marked left and right.
If anyone had the forethought to take photos of the disassembly process or are assembling seats at the moment I would very much appreciate some photos.
Cheers,
Richard

I’d leave them in bits. I did leave mine in bits.

Go to a wrecker and find a pair of MX5 seats, early style with the separate head rests. Then take these seats to a trimmer, and select the leather to match your new interior. You’ll need to fabricate a pair of mounts to attach the seat bases to the E-Type runners, see the archives for how others have done this. Keep the original seats or sell them.

Thanks for the pictures. Very helpful. It looks like I’m missing the large springs on the side,it’s not easy when your not the one who took it apart
It’s a bit of a pain but I’ll stick with the original seats
Cheers

I don't think yours has the big springs.

I'll give you a call.

I changed my seats for re upholstered MX5 seats, made it far more enjoyable to drive as the comfort level has gone up, also fitted a removable steering wheel - now no problem getting in or out
