You get what you pay for with new seats on ebay.

Cheap ones most likely are NOT ADR approved.

The only thing I'd say is he doesn't mention whether they meet the relevant standards , best check with them before bidding as if they aren't approved then you've just shelled out a fair bit of cash for some seats to use in the loungeroom . You could take the risk and use them but no definites of whether they'll hold up to spirited cornering or whether the first copper who takes a dislike to you checks them out and defects your car because of them . If they are legit though then grab them as the price is good .

I've bought to of them & i can't belive how good the quality is, they are a comfortable as my old sparco pro 2000 seat & nice & narrow to fit into the mini. Plus they are a full fiberglass seat, not one of those crappy steel frame ones. IMO they are great value for money. My MK2 Cooper S will have them in it shortly. Matt if you want to have a look at mine you are more than welcome.
