how did you fit them?Well... I got them for free I used to work for Porsche and I collected them from a 911 to be crashed. I have them now for nearly 15 years, intend to fit them into my next project, re-upholstered then.how much where they!?
Rear access is okay, not perfect, but okay. You have to move the seat forward as much as possible, then tilt the back. Leg room on the back seats of course depends on how far to move them backwards.how is rear access??

EDIT
Also Winged MK3 Fiesta seats from the Si fit, possibly the most comfortable factory seats ever!

A selfmade console:how did you fit them?
Bolts directly to the floor, rear access is only by shifting and tilting the seat.

That bucket (I don't know the correct name in English) is a Sparco Monte-carlo, with FIA homologation. They don't pass the inspection, so I must change them for the original one, and put the sparco another time before the inspection until the next year.
Now, the steering wheel is a new one and the door pannel is done in CF.

I am hoping these puppies fit ok, arrived to day courtesey of a rich bloke refurbing his AC Cobra.
Cobra Roadster 7s Signature range in cream leather with black alcantara centres.
There was an Austrailian geezer with them fitted in an red MK1 cooper in a recent issue of Miniworld and they seemed to fit rather nicely.
They have fixed backs and are a bit taller than classics with headrests though, so God knows what rear access will be like with a tilting subframe. Probably non existent.
blimey that looks complicated lol. i think ill fit cobra roadster 7's they look slightly similar.
Having looked into lots of seat as replacements for mine I came across a number of mentions that Cobra themselves stated that the Roadster 7 seats were designed to be fitted up against a bulkhead to provide support for the back. That was enough for me to rule them out for a Mini.

MGF SEATS
Also I have been told that to pass an MOT or to be legal they have to attatch to the original mini seat brackets, I notice most people on here have not done that. Does anyone know if that is the case, or is it just an NZ thing?
