Lordbenny Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) Was going to get someone to do it but decided to 'bite the bullet' & give it a go myself: The runners, they're for a set up much wider than what i need so will have to manufacture a new adjustment bar: Got the M8 bolts spot welded into place in the car to floor runner: fitted runners on the base of the seat making sure they were perfectly parallel: Got some corrugated platic and pressed it onto the bolts, drilled them out and hey presto....I had a template. Placed template into the car and marked where the holes are & sprayed some grey primer over the holes, when I took the template off I had 4 nice, neat grey spots on the cross members! its a good feeling when a plan comes together!

rob iles Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 mlud benny with regards to the adjuster bar, cut out the required width from the middle of the bar then sleeve it you could also cover in heat shrink for a tidy finish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the stoat Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Was it Westfield runners you had? I was hoping not to have to do any mods when I swap my seats to the same as yours. That will teach me to destroy my current ones with a sharp press stud on some shorts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say sparco but it seems they're supplied by a lot of people. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DOUBLE-LOCKING-BUCKET-SEAT-RUNNERS-SLIDE-RAILS-SLIDERS-/260821245444?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3cba285e04#ht_1875wt_1037 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
