Front seats 1959-69

Mk I and Mk II Front Seats
1959-69
Many different front seat designs were used in Mk I and Mk II Minis, the frame assemblies changing seemingly as many times as the materials and stitching patterns that covered them. Non-adjustable, fore/aft adjustable, non-reclining, reclining (in the form of the desirable Cooper high backed seat option, plus some Mk II seats), support webbing (1959-61) or support diaphragms (1961-69, more durable design) are just some of the choices and design changes offered between 1959 and 1969. While Austin and Morris seats were trimmed with vinyl covers, the Riley Elf and Wolseley Hornet were treated to leather faced covers, as befitting their upmarket status.

The reality of what's available today to refurbish Mk I and Mk II front seats is very positive in outlook, an almost comprehensive selection of seat covers, foams and webbing or diaphragms being offered which cater for the vast majority of customers' needs. No new seat frames are available for Mk I or Mk II Minis, which means that reusing your existing frames or purchasing secondhand serviceable frames are your only alternatives. The exception to this rule concerns the Cooper high-backed seats, for which complete, trimmed replica seat assemblies are available.

Please note that seat covers are supplied for some models and years as kits for pairs of seats or single seats and for others as individual components - take care to list the correct items and quantities (and colour, of course) when you order.

Front Seat Covers
Important Notes for Ordering Seat Covers and Seat Cover Kits:
Please state model and year of your Mini, plus the colour(s) you require along with the part numbers when placing your order. This will help us to make sure you receive exactly the seat covers you need.

Note that because of the complex nature of seat colours and material types, only very popular items and colours (usually black) are held in stock - all others will be obtained to order, for which there will be a short lead time.

High Backed Reclining Front Seat Assembly
