MX5 mk4 ND budget bucket seat options

  1. My model of MX-5 is: __ 2019 Nd 2.0
  2. I’m based near: __ NW England
  3. I’m looking for technical help or recommendations on: __ MX5 mk4 ND budget bucket seat options

OK so the usual suspects are Sparco Sprint and Cobra Monaco sport/pro

I’m going to go over to Tweeks to see how they fit as the Sparco seems quite narrow. The only seats I’ve had before were Bimarco Futura and they were good but had a good bit of wiggle room

Weight saving would be nice but I bet with the PCI side mounts/bases there is naff all weight difference between the steel budget seats and OEM - I bet padding isn’t much different either, OEM seats are super basic for padding.

More for sitting a little lower and also having the support that OEM supports don’t give - I’ve had mine retrimmed in alcantara and they’re massively improved but lacking the side support still.

So my question in a nutshell - who has fitted which seats in an ND. No mods to the interior otherwise (retain OEM door cards, etc)?

It’s for track only so I don’t want to spend a fortune. Also, what do you do about the passenger occupancy sensor and airbag lights? I know there is a massive thread on this on another international forum, but I’m asking here on the UK page.

Thanks

Just being nosey, did you get all this sorted? I am about to go down the aftermarket seat route so facing all the problems you listed…

Nah havent bothered mate. Ive got the pci brackets for the nd but not the seats.

Unsure if i can be bothered but it seems I’d be ok with a pair of cobra monacos
