    Seats

    Can we get bucket seats etc cheap as a Club anywhere, and where can I get some nice seat runners for them too? I am not tall so can't sit too low!

    Fanks :D

    You can buy my seats quite cheap if you like

    With proper mounts you can adjust the height to suit, I got mine from larkspeed iirc, not cheap but well worth it imo as they're mk1 clio specific. http://www.larkspeed.com/index.pl?p=COSFRE03&a=i
    Depending how high you want to go you might want to get side mounts instead of just base mounts

    What are those big side ones I see? Do they fit on the base bit?

    You forgot what my car is then you retard??

    They replace the whole lot Matthew, they're their own runners so it doesn't matter what phase the car is, wouldn't be surprised if they're lighter than the standard stuff either

    These. As the name implies they fit to the side of the seat

    Now the subframe I posted up earlier - this is harder to explain as I never took any pics when fitting mine - comes in 3 parts, 1 bolts to the floor of the car and the other 2 parts are the actual runners, they bolt onto the bottom of the seat and then onto the bit you bolted to the floor. With the side mounts, you'd bolt them onto the side of the seat, then onto the runners, then onto the bit on the floor. At worst you might have to drill some holes in the bottom of the mounts to line up with the bolt holes in the runners.

    Clear as mud?

    With the side mounts, are they universal?As I wouldn't have thought the holes would be in the same place on every model.

    A worthy question, Mr Brown, and the very same that vexes me yet even now, as I look with weary eyes to yonder bed.

    I'm not 100% sure but I think all side mountable bucket seats have the holes in exactly the same places plus on every side mount bracket I've ever seen 1 set of holes are slotted to allow for slight differences
