Got a cobra clubman on route (i hope) and am looking into fixing it into the clio.

Can anyone tell me what i need as descriptions of tailored subframes/h frames etc has left me a bit confused!

These seats are bottom mounted and will have harnesses.

Help appreciated! 8)

Oh, and if someone could tell me where i should be bolting the harness too that'd be great...they've got to be a good bit behind the seat haven't they (i.e. not that nice torx bolt under the rear seat)?

I think you can see, my harnesses are bolted to the existing seatbelt position placings behind the rear seats and the other bit attached to the subframes.

Youll need phase1 runners if you have a phase 2 to fit the subframes to... they didnt make phase 2 subframes so you need the other runners.

Many thanks for that.

On the subject of needing phase 1 runners...is that if i go for cobra tailor subframes? Reason i ask is i found this picture of lunners old RSI and he seems to have bolted the seat directly to the floor of the car;

TBH this is what i would prefer as it wouldn't mean any fannying about and as its only me driving the car its no problem no having any adjustablity...do you know where i could get these farmes from and what they're called?

they look custom built mate, would have been more messing about that it was worth for me to do that, so i got subframes... from demon tweeks, 112 quid i think it was total for the two...
