The worst part about the Lotus Emira…

Has been fixed!!

These are the Tillett b10 (regular) seats bought from Greg at GRP

A few observations after a few hours of driving:
-You sit lower for sure. Probably 1-2 inches if not more. I need to get used to new seating position. I had to adjust my mirrors so it’s definitely not in my head.
-I’m happy to report that you sit IN the seat. Not on top of it.
-Really good adjustablily in the recline of the seat
-Somehow it feel like it’s louder and you hear the exhaust better? perhaps when you lose like 5 inches of cushion that can happen.
-It is very comfortable. Surprisingly so. Once I adjusted the recline etc I was set and I felt very comfortable and relaxed (I’m 5ft 10 and 190lbs). I almost with the XL model but glad I didn’t.
-Most importantly, you feel MUCH more of what’s happening on the road and these seats hug you beautifully and fit your body like a glove. It increases connection and drama with the car.
-Car feels a bit peppier too. I guess that happens when you drop almost 50 pounds!
-Yes it’s worth the $$!

They look great and just the right stitching colour for mine.

Were they hard to install and did it cost mush on top of the seat?

What position settings did you use on the brackets?

No it was pretty easy to install. probably took me 2 hours taking it easy. Not sure what you mean by mush on top of the seat?

In the front the last hole from the bottom and in the rear the 2nd hole from the bottom

I’m guessing you lose the heated seat and seat memory adjustment?
