The TR6 does not have a lot of space to mount seats.  While most lightweight
"sports" seats may be narrow enough at the base, they will often have
"wings" at the shoulders which will be too wide (e.g. Corbeau, Sparco, etc).

It may be possible to have an upholsterer remove the "wings" and recover,
but that adds to the cost.

Basically, I am in the same boat, and have not found a good seat.  Kirkey do
make aluminum-shell seats which may do the job, but do not count on being
comfortable in them (during, e.g., the drive to/from the track).
