Hi I have stripped most of my interior out ready to weld a new drivers side floor pan in, I have now got to take the dash appart and rebuild it, anybody know how to fit door seals to stop them leaking, i have got new seals for every part except when i put them on the keep coming off? they were glue in place before but this didnt stop them leaking and does anybody know if the classic seats from midlands wheels fit, before i buy another pair of seats that wont fit?

If you clean the edge of the body with a little thinners then apply some Sikoflex into the channel of the rubber trim (I would get new stuff, I just did, or gently squeeze the steel grippers in the trim together a bit first) and then tap it firmly onto the body with the joint at the centre bottom, (near the catch).
NO, those seats will not fit, ANY sports seat will require at least 20" width ON THE FLOOR, (47cm BASE = 19") +- you will have at best 17.5". and with a fixed back you will need to be under 5'10" as dropped floors will be useless. As we have said, the best seats for the job are the Bedford Rascal / Suzuki Carry Hi-back recliners. You can get narrow "roadster" seats from both Cobra and Intertrim of Telford that will fit but they are narrow under the legs, fixed back and hard on the arse, Oh yeh, expensive!

According to MWS their "classic" seat is 47cm or 18.5" so I have no idea what you have, All I know is that from centre tunnel to chassis rail is 17.5" and if you drop the floors then that's all you have to play with.
