Hi Guys just had a quote from a salvage company for 2 front seats that are electric and heated like the MG style seats £150 for each front seat seems a lot of money for 2 front seats is this about normal the price for these ?

Yes sounds about right to me, Im thinking of selling my full set and after looking at values wont be selling for anything less than £400 so £150 for each front seat seems right imo.

The going rate for these in good condition in black seems to be between £250 and £400 on flea bay. So that price seem about right for just the fronts.
Mk2 seats seem to go for slightly more and no real differnce in the prices between the manual and fully electric ones.
The Rover style one tend to be cheaper than the contemporary ones.

I'm after some electric heated seats for my ZT, I managed to get hold of brand new MG alcantara seat covers so was gonna find a battered old pair of electrics and re-upholster them with the alcantara.

Only problem i've got is most of the electric ones are from the 75, so doubt they'll fit the foam.

Anyway, all quotes from parts gateway have been in the region of £150-200 for each front seat.

Hi Paul, there's quite a few on here who've done it. From what I can gather early ZTs had them in before Project Drive started removing things like wiring and lowering trim levels.

Hi Canonite A member on here put the looms in for me in my MG ZT mine is a 2003 version Mark 1 but i put the Rover 75 Seats in the sandbeige ones why i was thinking of looking for a full leather set in MG Style so it would look a lot more sportier
