I can, but they have to be disassembled (no big deal) and shipped singly due to size restrictions. A rough cost for shipping (on top of the cost of buying/fees/etc ) would be AUD$750 for airmail or $350 for seamail to Portugal.

For the white Sports pair on the previous page, the cost landed would be AUD$2130, plus your choice of shipping.

Welcome to AGT, too!

Thanks for the quick reply! The price is a little high for me. That tag price of AUD$2130 doesn't include the taxes i will have to pay here in Portugal. We have to pay a specific tax for everything that comes from out of the European Union. Maybe in a year or so i'll have that kind of cash... Thank you for your time anyway.

Take care

So do these auctions on often or can u order general ones in...
and Rupe i know u have the black white seats in ur Mazda what do u do for the back....

Rupewrecht 09-12-2008 03:07 PM

You can't get these new anymore - they were discontinued last year. So your only chance is off the auctions that i list (unless you find them elsewhere).

I've just got my standard seats in the rear. Don't really want to retrim the rears to match at this point, but you could do something similar.

the rails dont come with these do they...

It wouldn't take too much effort. The rails on each MS seat are identical, but there's little brackets that go on each corner of the rail that are different for each car. Lantis/Astina one are pretty rare, but they wouldn't be that hard to get someone to fabricate some - it's just 3 or 4mm bent steel. Getting them new is virtually impossible though.

And BG brackets for the MS seats...well, i've never seen any in 5 years.

Dan, for future reference, are the fittings on the seat transferable from side to side? As single seats seem to be more common than pairs.

Rupewrecht 15-12-2008 10:42 AM

Yep, the brackets can be swapped easily, and it's easy to swap over the recline mechanism wheel on the actual seat as well.

offshore4ft 15-12-2008 11:10 AM

Thats good, so the only thing that would be on the wrong side is the tensioner lever? Or is that on the same side on all of the seats?

Rupewrecht 15-12-2008 11:21 AM

There's a quick-tilt lever on both sides, so no problem there.

rupe wats the material like on the seat is it leather?
and is the white hard to maintain..?

Rupewrecht 19-12-2008 10:13 PM

Synthetic leather on the Sports seats, synthetic suede on the Type-F

I don't find the white hard to keep clean, but i do have to clean them regularly.

only just found this as i was digging around the forum, they are a piece of cake to fit in the BG astina, the inside rails bolt straight onto the stock rail, the outside rails require a 20 mm spacer (i used 20mm steel box section) the only thing about that method is it leaves you with two sets of rails (the factory ones on the floor and the ones that are part of the ms seat), which you cant get mod plated. the good news is i am currently having a set of proper rails made up which will be mod plate friendly, and i should be able to get anyone else a set if they are keen, price will be about $100 per side, plus a set of donor stock rails.

How hard is it to find the brackets for NA MX5s? And how often are Black Grey Type Fs popping up? Doesn't seem like alot :(

You can't get the brackets new anymore, but that one does actually have drivers brackets for an NA6.

The Type-F Black/Grey mesh are pretty rare as they're more recent (so less years made, so less common) - mostly they were from RX8s

..so if you see one and want it, you should grab it!

maztech 28-10-2009 08:08 PM

Do mazdaspeed seats comply with ADR so you can get a mod plate for them?

70NYD 28-10-2009 08:42 PM

i dont think u have to since they are a factory option :)

maztech 28-10-2009 08:48 PM

Rupe do you know what the go is?

Rupewrecht 28-10-2009 09:24 PM

No idea! There is crash data existing for them (in Japanese) in the MS manuals i have, but no idea if they'd comply with Aus standards.

BGSP 21-04-2010 12:12 AM

Do the seats come with rails?
