Hmm yeah I know.

- ADR approved seats
- Made by an Australian company
- Suitable for use in all states in Aus, just not my Datto!

They came back with the quote for the Sparco's, I would end up saving approx $500 by sourcing in the UK...

Cheers,

Trent

Baz is right, if you're vehicle was manufactured before July 1998, then you are exempt as per ADR22 - APPLICABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION.

here's the ADR for your reference http://www.comlaw.gov.au/Details/F2006C00263

If the seats were ADR03/03 compliant then you would probably be in a better position as these are automatically exempt.

Definitely get a second opinion.

Good to hear, did you go to another engineer in the end, or convinced the current one?
