I've got the setup from JK Composites fitted in mine and I'm really happy with them.
They now have a proper template for the Atom and they fit really well. They also keep your bum warmer than no padding!
They are not £20 though

Hi @wasp,
do you ordered two seats from JK Composites for your ariel or only the upholstery?
How do JK fixing the pads?
Let see some pictures please.

Yes, I ordered a set for each side.
They are a weatherproof padded vinyl (sounds special huh??)
They fit with heavy duty Velcro.
I'll try and do pictures tomorrow.
Wine is affecting skills tonight but I don't really care
I'd highly recommended them if you tour a fair bit or find the standard bench seats too big.
Cheers,
Stuy

Which JK Composites seat pad set did you buy - the 2 piece or 5 piece?
http://www.jkcomposites.com/unholsterypage.html
I notice that they also offer (somewhat illiterately!) a Velcro fitting option on the 2 piece - do you know if they offer it also on the 5 piece set?

I wallow around in the standard seats.

Re: Minimal seat pads
These are the JK Composites set on Ian's old car.
First Atomised 2001.
Atom (165) > Atom 2 (220) > Atom 3 (300) > Atom 3.5 (310) > Atom 4 (350).
There is no cure.

Re: Minimal seat pads
Mine are exactly like that, except the base cushion is properly cut out to fit the seat belt hole in the middle of the seat.

Re: Minimal seat pads
And what do these from JK cost?
These look nice and are the same as on the atom i posted pics from.
Just hope they arent too big as it's already a tight fit for my 6'6 body .
But the new jacket has no padding on the back anymore and after 4h of driving on bckroads
I had a pain in my spine...

Stu where did you buy yours then?

I bought them direct from JK Composites
http://www.jkcomposites.com/unholsterypage.html
I think it was £140 for 2, including them doing the heavy-duty velcro.
I phoned them and they were really helpful.
They will do contrast colour edging too, if you fancy that.
They sometimes take a while to answer the phone due to a noisy compressor
They are the best solution I've seen so far.
