Nice one Gav! Wasn't hard was it?

There comfortable aren't they? I sat in Daz's at Trax last year and nearly fell asleep in them.

Looking good bro.

Only just noticed this, yeah was thinking about taking them out but its too noisy on long journeys because of the boot, if i took them out id have to fit a panel to block the boot so its still usable.



Decided to take the seat back out to notch the adaptors so it would sit lower (still only temporary mounts for now) but they are more solid than the seat i took out :s

Back out in the sun



roughly notched the brackets



while i was there i took the other seat out so i could clean the carpet properly




found more glass in the corner, took the panel off and it poured out damn it! thought i had found it all since it was november when it was put through!


yummy recaro-ness!

Yeah I'm making some proper ones, but for a few week they will be fine, there pretty sturdy. Seats far less wobbly than the passenger haha

Tbh a crash in a corsa isnt safe. Seats are the last thing id bother about
