sorry your seats don't fit right

these are a pretty good option:

You can get them with seat heaters that are compatible with the existing harness, and you can even get them with OEM compatible side curtain airbags. They're exactly the same as the BMW Performance Seats just without the fancy BMW colored upholstery.

I think the power to weight ratio is somehow improved however...

Thanks Chris, yeah I hear ya, but looking at it now as an /opportunity/ (lol) to improve on my original plan.

After i got over the initial disappointment, i started looking for a new seat, and think I've found it, just waiting on a reply from the builder over a few questions i had with the seat and its fitment. can't give away too much yet, but I am sure you guys will LOVE it!! Its aggressive. and again, this option I've now gone for will require a belt bar somewhere along the line.. Its just that i don't really want to break up my interior. so looking also at the moment for options (non destructive) for a belt bar. I have a guy who designs and builds custom cages for off road racing, so quality assurance is in house, i just have to brainstorm on how its going to work...

The Momo's were cheap enough not to cost me my marriage, though these new ones I am looking at are not, so just going to put it down as R&D investment. LOL. Ive also realised that i need to start running again, as my Sparco race suit is a little on the tight side where all the beers reside.
