Seat fitment - URGENT!!

Post by Pete&Matt »

I am trying to fit in the seat shells that we got.

They are a wider type so that I can get my bum in them comfortably. I can get the seats to fit without the belts, but the bolt heads of the belt anchorage points are in the way and stopping the seat from fitting correctly.

Has anyone else had this problem and found a way round it? Without either getting new seats or putting in a second set of seat anchorage points, I don't see any other options really. Im not comfortable with moving the seat anchorage points and would be a lot of work to do so.

Any help urgently would be appreciated!

Thanks

I managed to fit mine even using eyebolts and they protrude more than your type. Looking at the photo there looks to be enough room ?

The corner of the seats foul, by quite a bit though!

Will need to get the lap belts modified so they are longer too, as you can't get to the adjusters at present.

Possible to do some photos of yours rob and email them over?

Thanks

I've got a new laptop and new server now but can't figure out how to set up email , PC's aren't my ' thing ' . Someone set up the email for me on my old desktop decades ago :lol: I had outlook express which I liked and need setting up on this laptop if possible. I put the harnesses in before the seats , over long then adjusted later. I could try pics on the iPhone then text to you if possible/space allowable for a view. :lol:

Thanks
