Alternate seats for a spider

Hello everyone,
sorry to ask a question I know I've seen on here before, but the archives 
don't seem to have much to offer. . . 
The seats in my spider are awful.  Black vinyl (makes the car virtually 
undriveable in Texas for much of the year), torn, and the seat pans (that the 
butt cushion sits in) are rusted out, not to mention no lumbar support 
whatsoever.  I've thought about recovering or replacing the seats, but the 
original seats just suck so bad as far as comfort level or even lateral 
support is concerned. . .
I've been thinking about the possibility of putting in seats from some more 
modern small roadster, or sports car, i.e. miata or Toyota MR2 or maybe even 
a Z3.  I've heard a lot of people say that Corbeau (sp?) seats are a good 
deal for new aftermarket, but they are still out of my price range.
In any case, I'm wondering what people have done about the seat belt guides 
at the top outer corners of the seats.  Without these, I don't think the seat 
belts would sit right.
Also, what have people done about the mounting hardware fabrication?
Anybody have some nice quad seats they want to sell cheap?  (hey it's worth a 
shot).
 I want to make this car more of a fun, comfortable, daily driver, even for 
road trips, and summer weather (without spending an arm and a leg).  What 
good is a great italian sports car if I'm drenched in sweat the second I sit 
down in it?
Sorry if some don't approve of Jap seats in an Alfa, if you have a better 
suggestion for cheap comfy seats, please share.
Thanks for the help,
Jake Hahn
