Seat belts
FSU, a member of the MG-Rover.org forum, has come up with an
alternative to the usual seat belt tidy options. This is his
description, followed by photographs.
"Select a leather belt 2” wide in my case and quite supple
leather. With a sharp knife cut two strips each 25cm (10”) long.
Taking each strip individually fold over so that both the cut edges
are together – one on top of the other. Clamp between two pieces of
wood – I used 4mm plywood – and make sure the ends of the leather
strip is visible. Drill a 10mm hole – using a sharp wood drill –
with the centre of the hole approx 2.5 cm from the cut edge and
central to the strap.
Remove head rests – remember that the plastic holder on the seat
needs to be turned clockwise (1/4 turn) to allow them to come out
completely.
Fold leather strap around the seat belt and push the appropriate
head rest shaft through the two holes. Refit head rest to seat and
check seat belt operation"

Badly fitting carpets
This is a post from Per (lagerpe) on MG-Rover.org with a great
tip for you ill fitting carpets.
Here's a tip from Jerry 'MGtfnut' Herbert for ill fitting
carpets - "Loosen the seat fixing bolts to the floor, and pull
the carpet out towards the sills, then tighten up. No need to
fiddle with the SRS etc. Normally the carpet edge will then tuck in
behind the soft plastic finisher as intended."

Roll hoops
For those of you with the type of roll hoop that goes through
the T-bar,
here is a great tip from Tony Thompson's site. If you had the OE
mesh wind stop fitted, this tip will cover the hole that is left
behind.

Gear Stick

Shortening the MGTF gear stick courtesy of me....
Before you start, make sure your gear knob will fit over the gear
stick shoulder, The Momo knob I fitted was perfect for this. so,
remove the gear knob. Place a cloth over the gear stick. Hack off
the top 30mm. Run an M10 die down the remaining shaft, up to the
shoulder. Remove the cloth and swarf. Refit gear knob.
