Heated sports seats

Looking to replace my SE heated non electric flat seats with sport seats.
Must be heated and in very good condition. Electric adjustment fine if they will work in my car?
Otherwise manual is fine.
Black, or light colour, not red.
Thanks
 
I have Oregon black with electric bases for £800

I have half and half Silverstone (light grey) & black with manual or electric bases. £700 or £800. Supplied with door cards in Silverstone an extra £100. The leather on these seats are softer than Oregon, more akin to New England but not quite Nappa.

If you are a taller larger gentleman I have E89 seats in Cannaberra Beige, which is a white beige, with manual adjustment and modified to fit your car for £600. Extra £100 for door cards to match.

All seats are heated. Collection from Norwich (I know you are Bournemouth)

I can likely add the wiring to your car to make the electric bases work if you want, your car is a facelift so likely that it won't have the wiring.
 
Hello again Usel.
Thanks for this, I have messaged DaveP re his half leather set, just looking into potential travel arrangements etc.
But very interested to see images of your seats please, and you potentially fitting and wiring is very appealing.
I don’t want to spend too much though otherwise I could have just bought a 3.0 si sport.
I’m the opposite of taller and larger!
Definitely want E85 sports seats.
Cheers
 
If you travel this way for DaveP's seats then I can fit the wind deflector for you.

Will post pictures of seats later

These need cleaning, repairing and painting.

These are pearl grey but sold ages but an example of how they should look when done:

I bought some seats off Usel, can confirm he does a great job in making them like new!
I'll second that. Just got a pair of standard heated memory ones from Rob to fit in my latest project.
No more saggy bolsters!
 
So I’ve got several options, half leather heated manual, full leather heated manual, full leather heated, electric. Tatty set and full re upholster ££.
I wonder what would best add value,(if at all) as well as being an improvement in use of course, over my LASW Oregon park bench?
I will need to px these seats too as no space to keep them.
I need to understand what I need for electric seat instal and if I can easily source and fit the loom plus costs.
Or more likely if someone can help me perhaps part of the deal.😊
Usel I think you have my number if you are free for a chat anytime.

I would love some like these or champagne!
 
The only issue I have with the motorised seats is that you lose a bit of adjustment range. In particular they don’t go so low. Of course this may not be an issue depending on your build and preferred driving position, but worth sitting in some first to check.
 
Thanks, I’m more likely to need the raising than lowering at 5’7” so hopefully not an issue. 😆

You really need to have a good think because the following effects what you need to do.

How much do you want to spend?
Is your car a keeper for many years or will you be wanting 3.0si?
Can you wait or do you want a quick fix?
Prepared to travel?

DaveP's seats are cheap, you have to travel and maybe not what you want but are available now and a quick fix.

Mine are expensive, you have to travel and maybe not what you want but are available now and you'll need wiring done to the car.

Pearl grey are potentially expensive, hard to find, may need repairs, you'll need door cards.

There is a pair of pearl grey on ebay with door cards for £750 with best offer collected from Banbury. I know his Facebook market place profile if you wanted to make an offer.
They need repairing, there's a hole in the bolster in an annoying place. You'd have to travel to get them, then potentially travel to repair them. It'd cost £4‐500 for repairs.

Cheapest option with lots of hastle is wait for a car with the seats in. Swap seats and doors cards and then sell it.

DaveP's seats, to be honest, look ideal while you wait to find the seats you want and you'll probably sell them for what you bought them for.
