Hey e-clip I got me some seats outta an early Mazda 2 that fit my Cobra and I think they're better looking that the MX5, paid $11.00 for ém on flea bay and got the back seats thrown for nuttin' !
And I had to drive 55k's one way to pick ém up too, you'd reckon for $11 he'd have delivered ém

I've got a pair of aluminium Absolute Pace seat frames that might work for you. Need upholstering though. PM me if you want more info.

For me.. could use the Pace seat.. they fit a Coupe, just need to trim them to maintain sufficient head height.

With a reclining bucket from an ADR compliant vehicle I could improve head room further by increasing the degree of rake on the seat by a few degrees.. and it gives it a more modern look... in short it is a cross I've made for my own back.. The Pace seats are always there is its the only option that works.

I preferred the lower profile headrest design of the seat that Tony from Sports and Classic Interiors makes. Just my preference. Much the same as one person choosing over riders versus quick jacks.
