OK I got cali leather seats for my car and theyr getting fitted along with my install. A few weeks ago I was told "your seats are in and they fit ok" and now today Iv just been told "Karen we have a slight problem your new seats dont fit in the car" I asked how and the reply was "They just dont fit OK" So I know they lied about fitting the seats a few weeks ago but does anybody know why they wont fit. When I know of a few ppl with Tigras who have fitted these seats with the exsiting subframes and have had no problem at all. So what could be wrong with them

So why has the other ppl I have spoken to who have these seats in their Tigras say the Cali frames fit perfectly and the garage tried this and didnt work

they probably meant that the holes for the seats to fit to the subframes are the same for the cali and the tig/corsa

don't believe people on the internet, most people make things up or repeat someone else's post wrong etc
people pretending they know loads cos they have no real life experience
