    Cheap drivers seat options

    Hello, My drivers seat (non recaro) has seen better days, it squeaks and now the back has begun rocking a little. I was looking what options are available, I don't want recaros, but are open to ideas. Only have £300 for this endeavour. Is there anything known to be a direct fit? Any ideas chaps?

    My 197 full fat has taken the next evolutionary step. It seems to of decided that it's going to shed some weight... Firstly lost the tow point cover cap thing on the front bumper, then this morning the light in the passenger side door was dangling about when I opened the door, all the clips...
