Hey, Thanks Dan and Jay

You guys are quick on the mark, I need to get some decent seats in One of the Williams as the ones i have i bought cheap from ebay, the worst £200 ive spent.

The Missues hates them, Dont laugh, but the day i fitted them we went out for a spin, the flaming backbox got ripped off the motor as were so low (I cant belive all the speed bumps you have in Essex!) But the worst bit was the harness was so tight the poor woman went blue, I couldnt make it any more larger, but the worst bit was she was stuck in the seat and it took 3 of us to pull her out . So i really need to get wider seats, any ideas? When i find out how to put some pictures on here i will.

See you later, and remember the Fat Blokes Here!!

Regards

Big Ron
