looks like your just gonna have to buy em and see how they fit, if not keep your receipt and take it back, just make sure they still look like new!!!
you know supercheap has seats, aswell as autobarn.

Its also possible to use a tape measure and measure the dimension of the seats and the space in a mini.

Somehow that should give an idea of it will fit. I know of carpenters who measure dimensions multiple times daily.

Mike, to take the measurement, would you recommend using a ruler or a piece string?

I was measuring up for seats in my mini and came up with the following:

Max width at base(front)- 520mm
Max width at base(rear)- 430mm (to fit handbrake)
Max width at shoulders- 535mm
Max height- 880mm
From centre of seat to edge of recliner handle (if fitted)- 290mm

This will depend on what runners you use and what door pockets are fitted etc. Not a definitive answer but it may help.

Aw !!!!! to be fair to the question asked by Tiny, it is something that can be done with a tape measure. Firstly measure the distance from B piller to B piller. If that distance is less than two seats at shoulder height - then go no further. Go from that if seats fit into the car.

Save the string for doing complex things like wheel alignments.

Ok Joe here you go my new seats are.
400mm wide at the base
530mm wide at the top
895mm in height.

thanks steve and sox.

i did measure it with a tape measure but its hard to imagine it exactly. but by the looks of steves and sox measurements they wont fit .

the measurements for the seat is

550mm base
530mm shoulder
940mm bottom to top straight up.

the seats recline back but i think they will be too big for the car 550mm base is basicly touching eachother and covering the handbrake completely the shoulders will be fine and the top will have to be reclined a bit back to fit properly

yes a 1" only..its tight
A standard roundy seat is 500ml on the front
you can do the conversion
