I've fitted mark 2 MR2 seats : very comfy : there's a post here somewhere on which brackets to fit :

Just fitted mine : straight forward swap and locks easily : I did replace the coupling and boot at the gearbox and the front rod which was looking a bit worn. Great bit of kit.

Does anyone know where I can source a pedal cover plate for a rhd van or if the lhd new Brazilian plate can be made to fit??

did you not put a reserve on that ?

and get a carbon monoxide alarm for your van if you plan to use any form of carbon based heating ... you can die pretty quickly in a sealed van with the gas on. The propex heater takes air into the heater from the outside and then exhausts to the outside but I still used a CO monitor. Have now...

If your ever in Plymouth I've 4 rusty hub caps you can have gratis: naturally rusted with a feint gleam of knackered chrome :)

Theres a circlip on the lower end of the pin that you will need to push off to get the pin out : I put lots of effort into getting them into the door channels using a wooden pusher and the door shuts nicely

Scrubbed mine with a copper swede brush and hydrogen peroxide ! did the trick but still a little yellower than the new headliner

any pictures here or on line ?? and where are you for viewing ?

I know it's no longer for sale but what was theprice >? friend is looking for a good spec Westy but not sure how much he should be spending
