#1 seat mounting problem

Post by phoenix » Wed Oct 04, 2023 1:43 pm

S1 FHC RHD . We have fitted the paseinger seat fine but when we try to fit the drivers side it just will not line up with the holes in the floor. I must add it has had complete new floor pan fitted .Is there any difference in drivers ads passenger seats ?

Don't think so....certainly 3.8 seats have the same hole spacings on each side...I presume 4.2/seats are the same..

I had to slightly modify the mounting holes on my sliders to get the seats to fit replacement floors.

Well finally fitted seats. For some reason they would only fit a certain side. Also when the runners were fitted you could see that they were not parallel with each other and we had to fit washers to level the up on both.
