Nick Jones Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I do know someone with a couple of Bonds… I’ll ask him next time I see him (next week with a bit of luck). Herald, Vitesse will fit. Also MX5 or MGF (probably) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foshi Posted October 19, 2021 Author Share Posted October 19, 2021 if you would , it came fitted with vitesse seats i feel the original seats look much better. if no luck i may look for some early MGF seats paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Jones Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Found these….. https://www.gumtree.com/p/car-replacement-parts/microcell-contour-6-bucket-seats-from-1966-bond-equipe-gt4s/1412222368 I reckon he’s got the decimal point at least one place too far to the right though! There are various after market bucket seats that look quite a lot like Bond seats but cost less than that new! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Jones Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 You could maybe also try contacting Steve Morris in Tavistock (triumphspitfirespares on eBay) as I know he’s had a couple of Bonds through within the last couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foshi Posted October 19, 2021 Author Share Posted October 19, 2021 have tried no joy, spitfire graveyard say the spitfire gt6 seats will not. fit as they look very similar i was a bit surprised thought they would have gone in with a bit of work, can find these no problem.

Nick Jones Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Sure you could get the Spit/GT6 seats fitted somehow (maybe use the Vitesse runners?) but you might find they are too low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpbarrett Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Not sure where you are but I have a couple of MX5 cloth faced seats you can have for free. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foshi Posted October 20, 2021 Author Share Posted October 20, 2021 thanks mike , going to go with spitfire, found a good set black which will match the rear seat, will fit the herald runners and adjust the height if required. thank you nick .
