MG Midget and Sprite Technical - What seats?

Hello All,
My "restore" is coming along nicely- we should be road ready in less than a month but in order to get it out on the road I need seats. (my tool box is becoming quit uncomfortable) I'm looking for super cheap after market or whatever will get me by. Are most seats going to be universal? Thinking about going to a junk yard and trying to score something from a compact. (subie, Nissan, Civic, Suzuki) I do have a hard top so that will definitely limit on what I can use I suppose. BTW my mighty midget is probably going to be the only 5 tone on the road--I'm going to worry about paint next year :)

seats would be
Mazda -- miata ???
or MGF
Mick - trying to sort the wiring

Ah yes Miata. That's a great idea. Thanks Mick.

Yes, Miata seats are a popular conversion, and work very well. A friend has them in his '71 Midget, and another friend has a set in his MGB GT. I've never tried installing them, but I understand it's not all that difficult.

Sorry I dont have any better shots of the seats but Tarquin might be able help you out on installing.
