A friend has just bought a mk3 and the driver's seat has written in the usually places, dies anyone know anywhere local-ish to Gloucestershire where he can get it repaired. Or alternatively anywhere that sells a quality seat cover (I notice that MX5 parts have covers for mk1 and mk2's but not the mk3's).

TIA

You can buy a second hand set of seats on ebay for about £100.

The seats were changed I think on the first facelift. They gained a height adjustment, the seat base became removable via some screws etc etc.
Make sure you get like for like when you buy secondhand seats as I found to my cost....

No idea about how it would fit exactly. Reckon it'd be ok but seat belt guides and airbags would be on the wrong side.
