I have Cobra Clubman seats in my Tiger.
Mine were 1inch wider(they were in stock!) and fit REALLY tightly.
I mounted the passenger seat with large door hinges with the pins replaced with
quick release pins.
I dissabled the driver seat cut/rewelded/cut foam/etc. and now have it on the
Tiger adjuster. Will do that to the other one someday too. Had to move the
seatbelt cutouts too.
Like them alot!
