Thanks for the response, I have been in touch with JK and they are happy to make seats of any size, I am just trying to get an idea of the widest seats that will fit. I think I will just have to take my seats out (which have been foamed in!), measure and order. The only downside is that it takes a while for the seats to come through and once my seats are out I won't be able to re-fit them! I suppose being Phoenixless for a few weeks won't hurt!

The Phoenix is a Striker chassis and JK make a Striker/Phoenix specific seat ;) http://www.jkcomposites.com/sevens/

I have them in my current Striker build and put them in my previous Striker and for the money they are very good.

Alternativly the Tillett B3.5 seat can me squeezed in (http://www.tillettcarseats.co.uk/B3.5-racing-car-seat.htm) but needs decent brackets/ mounts as its very thin walled but is also very comfortable in Jeffs car :)

The Tillett B3.5 was designed for my car by Tillett from the B3 and will fit the Striker/Phoenix width. As Pete says it needs brackets made.

I see Tillett also do a B6.5 now which is a little more upright, I wonder if anyone has fitted on of them in a Striker/Phoenix yet?

Looks great Pete. Big improvement. Must be a lot more comfortable.
