Seat Diaphragm MGB 1962-70 + Midget 1967-70 Reviews

Read MGOC Spares Reviews

New to range, MGOC Spares has resourced Seat Diaphragm suitable for MGBs up to 1970 and Sprite & Midgets from 1965 to 1969. These new seat diaphragms are manufactured in the UK by the original
equipment manufacturer.

Fitting tip: Immerse diaphragm in very hot water and fit to seat frame immediately, this will make the diaphragm more supple and avoid splitting.
Alternatively: The later MGB Diaphragm with a webbing construction (part number BHH580) may be used in place of the earlier solid rubber diaphragm (part number AHA7878), although this requires redrilling of the hook positions on the seat frame with a 2.5mm drill bit. The later webbing is a better engineered solution and tends to last longer than the earlier solid rubber diaphragm. The MGB webiing (BHH580) may be used on both early MGB and Midget reclining seats.
Note: All webbings should be fitted with Calico Canvas to protect the bottom of the seat foam from rubbing on the diaphragm (see part number R150)

Haven’t fitted them yet, but they look good quality rubber as advertised. I hope they last as long as the originals. Good speedy service.

MGOC Spares brilliant as always. For Midget owners buying this - it’s ideal but you will need a warm environment and pulling hook/stretcher to get the diaphragm on. The new hooks provided are useless and bend out so keep the old OEM ones which are stronger and a better shape than the cheap weak replacements.

Having fitted it, the foolowing morning I found one corner had torn out. Not impressed frankly.
