I've a pair of Miata seats if you're interested.

Many racing seats are a bear to get in and out of.  Cheap ones tend to be 
about as comfortable to sit on as a board.  Do consider that.

Not sure what you're saying about selling outright on e-bay.  If you mean 
buy it now, there are several pair listed.  Otherwise, they are sold to the 
highest bidder.
