If you do a search I'm sure you'll find similar past posts worthy of reading.

But i reckon the short answer is:

Are you happy with fixed style buckets, if yes I'd suggest GF seats to get best fit.

If no, then you need to modfy other seats pretty heavily.

My MX5 seats ended up costing me about $1000 after narrowing 50mm and retrimming. I facilitated the narrowing / welding at no cost, seats cost me $600, which is a good price for leather versions from a late model car 2002 model, and trimmer charged $400 to downsize to the new frame size I achieved.

The GF floor layout is a bastard and you are likely to struggle to get a good fit with standard seats. But then I was just focussed on the MX5 option.

If you can find seats from a car called a Cappuccino from Suzuki, you might be onto about the only seats that are possibly smaller than MX5. I've only seen one of these cars ever but they are small.

Anyway a well padded GF seat might make it so much easier despite the up front cost, just make sure they are ADR compliant!!

Cheers
