Took out my old seats, still got the old runners in there atm.

Guy at the rage store said most fit onto the old runners/subframes, also didnt have the subframes in stock/store at the time.

He also said you could get someone to weld an extra bar to sit the seats onto.

However got two rage seats to fit into the corsa but they bolt down rather than 90 degree angles into the old holes / rollers.

So do i need the full subframe units etc?

Got some pics etc if you want to see anything

Do what looks right. Though I would assume they should fit some Cobra sub-frames with minimal modification. The reason I say this is that all other sub frames modify your current setup. You will need a sunroof then for your head to poke out of. Cobra sub-frames lower the seat loads meaning that your buckets will fit properly and give you a proper seating position
