thats what i was thinking, only got the sparco one originally as it filled the rear of the bay up above the inlet mani. (sits lower than the s one)
With re-spraying it, I found last time that getting the resin caoting off to be a complete pain in the arse...
You reckon that primering and spraying straight on top will be ok??

Lil update, picked up dave's pair of Cobra Daytona seats and harnesses about 2 hours ago, will get them fitted along with *hopefully* my quickshift tomorrow. Just need to touch up the subframes *hammerite ftw* and get them in....

buckets are half in atm, and the quickshift is now fitted as well. They're so much more comfy than the standards. I'll get some pics later once they're all in - just having some lunch, then i'll be back out to get the other seat in

seats and quickshift are all now fitted. Need to order some new dual-release 3 point harnesses to go with the buckets so that I can still get into the back. They'll be ordered either tomorrow or friday.
I forgot to take some photos so i'll do that tomorrow
If anybody is after a set of black 2" Sabelt 3 point harnesses, drop me a PM
