Wibble bibble. Incapable of rational speech...
'course, now we really are going to need a supercharger...
That is class!

[BUSHWHACKER]

Blimey, they fit!

"They won't work so well there as it's a low pressure area. Where they are is the optimum position for extraction at speed."

Guess that's why those nerds at jaguar put them there then!!!

[flounderbout]

As ever I am in your hands Maestro. They look great where you have them...
Jigsaw away...

[BUSHWHACKER]

Looks good to me!

The other possible option might be further back so the rearmost point of the vents lines up with the back of the scoop? Just a thought...

Oh, and your hanging baskets need some work...

Not my department!
The whole house needs work but these bluddie Surf's keep taking up my time.

[BUSHWHACKER]

This seems the best position, allowing the flow of the curves to tie-in with the Surf's bonnet bulge and the scoop.


OK? before I get the jigsaw out.

[flounderbout]

Thanks for that fellas. Will weigh up the various options...

[lawsy]

and it looks liek my Recaro's have sold minus the runners, so I may have a cheap pair of surf - recaro runners available if it'll help you out...

I'm sure you are right. There have been various threads about seats which mention them (I think from the Prof himself). I am just wondering if I am going to have to spend some readies on seats whether I mightn't as well go for something shiny and new... Nothing as sparkling as the engine of course..!

Danv6saxo, over on hilux owners has/had some recaros from a mitsy Evo which he claims fit. They'd look sweet, clean..lol

Those would fit, but because your truck is now lifted, the sides of the seats are hard and make it difficult to get in and out without either hitting your head on the door frame or parting your cheeks!

That solves that then - I part my cheeks for no man!
I find the standard seats really comfortable. So I think I will just get them re-covered.

[BUSHWHACKER]

I know

Or I'm watching these on FleaBay, but not sure what the dimensions are

Lexurf II has that type and they are too wide IMO, the shoulder 'wings' rub on the door pillars and you have to drape the seatbelt over them because you can't get at the belts otherwise. Plus they don't recline very well if I remember.

[flounderbout]

I'm sure Subaru or MK7 Celica seats are a reasonably easy swap. If they aren't, someone will gently put me right
