Those porche seats are pretty cool, the RX7 ones look good too.

Its hard to tell from looking at pics of seats as to if they will suit without actually seeing them in the 1200 tho, quite often seats that look good in other cars end up looking too big in a 1200 in my opinion.

I havn't priced it up but I have often thought I would just get my stock seats re- bolstered & built up more in the sides etc and made nice and snug and recovered to look similar to stock, they are not a bad shape and proportionally are just a great size match for the car.
It saves having to mess around with fitting rails and getting certs etc too

This is true but I thought about hinging the passenger seat so it can tilt forward, like the old minis and Morris minors etc. but have locking pins
