Alternative seats?

[mic]

Are there any bucket seats that are a direct replacement for the original ones?

[ScottieJ]

none are a direct fit however it is not hard to make adapters to fit most bottom mounted bucket seats to the original subframes.

As scott said... ive fitted my buckets on the origanal runners.
But, i had to make a new base frame for them to sit on, as buckets are narrower than standard seats...

[mic]

what about from other cars??

[carnut]

whatever seats you buy,,, your going to have modiefy them to fit.. subaru seats are good. also rover 25 or simular.

my vote as always is swift gti, My Sj had some in when I bought it,



but in the end I broke the drivers seat, so I put another set in except the drivers seat of the replacement set had fag burns in, so I had them re-covered in red leather and velour, and then i had the back seats and door cards re-covered to match!

looks good! ive got me a seat but cant help but think it might look better with 2 of the same. it has quite a bit of padding so should be ok

Do Swift seats go straight in or do they need modifying?

[Tramp]

all seats that are fitted require some modification. The swift seats need fitting onto the original seats runners, you can bolt them on or weld them on, and that way the seats still run backwards and forwards like the originals with the passenger seat that still goes extra far forwad (which you need if your going to get passengers in the back)

havent seen how the seat runners bolt in i.e. to the floor or on supports, would these be ok to use instead of whatever is there now?!
