The £995 mentioned on the home page of www.tritonraceproducts.co.uk is for a full ten piece lo-cost body kit including seats. Individual seats are more like £125.

I've fitted various seats (Recaro SPG, Subaru Impreza, Lotus Elise etc) into MX5's.

Its surprising what can be made to fit but frequently they have to be offset to avoid hitting the door / side of the car (the std seat backs are NOT symetrical)

Those look like they will fit ok.

I don't have direct knowledge but I've seen these seats fitted in an Elise. On that basis, if they produce a seat that fits onto the standard Elise mounts then you could fabricate something up for an Elise seat. There's plenty of threads on MX5Nutz on fitting Elise seats.
