I put Audi A4 seats in mine. The drivers side needed some flat plates as adapters. The passenger side 3x1 box section with some flat plates on top.
I welded them together but you could bolt them easy enough

Old recaros, swift gti and ignis sport seats are easy to fit.

Only issue with the a4 seats is how high you need to mount them, twiss's seats are far too high for me.

You might fit in alright... had one of my managers out off roading the other day and he's a lot taller and larger than you :P
If not you will just have to rent your own damn truck haha

Was funny you squeezing into the MX5 :P

I might go buy myself a set of Civic EP2 seats for my Gypsy...
