I keep finding Exige's 240 that I like, but without the Sports pack (Seat, Cage bar, harnesses)

What would be the approx cost of fitting these, are the standard fit seat worth very much to off set this cost?

Pattern harness bar will cost you around 100-150 quid. Non-Lotus seats, well there's a variety of products of variable quality from 400-500 quid each for non OE... budget best part of 1k a seat for new Lotus OE motorsport seats. 4pt schroth ASM 4 point harnesses 150-200 a piece though Willans/Luke may well be cheaper. So all in.. its 1500-2k.

Obviously you don't have to have 2 motorsport seats/harnesses, but it looks odd if you don't have a matching pair. There is a market for standard seats, but I wouldn't expect more than 400 the pair.

Beware also... depending on the model year, sports pack may also inclide other bits and pieces... possibly upgraded dampers/springs, additional oil cooler.. things like that. In all, it may be better to wait for a fully spec'd car
