Trying the get my new seats in :-(

[Paul1982]

Right guys,
 
I\'ve bought universal seat brackets to fit my new buckets in but i dont have a clue how i\'m going to get them in.
 
The standard seats have a bend in the front runners for the front 2 screws..... How the hell am i meant to make my Universal ones do that lol
 
Has anyone else have these problems?

universal seat brackets i dont think are meant to bend, just have a stndard lay out holes, if you have the original you can either get some made up or modify your universal ones to fix at a metal crafting place or even weld your original brackets to your new seats!

I\'m selling my Original seats and didnt really wanna take them apart :-(

well if you got engough rail on the universal ones try matching them to bend like the orignals or brings them to a metal shop where they can copy it for you and match make sure it matches to your seats.

what seats are they?

yeah your going to have to modify them rails mate, unless your orininal ones bolt straight to it, then that would be v. lucky lol!

In my experience \'universial fitment\' in reality means \'fits f**k-all\'

Had a nightmare trying to get a pair of Corbeau bosses into my fiesta. Eventually gave up and drilled new holes. lol

you need to use the stock runners and make them fit your seats or make a plate that bolts to old seat holes in the floor so you have flat area and then mount the universal runners to that but bare in mind that your seat must be secured very well for your safety.

Only prob with the 2nd option is you end up with seat being quite high
