Ive just ordered a pair of Corbeau seats and obviously i will need to take the old ones out.

Ive had a look at the car and cant see any obvious bolts that will remove the seats and its sub frame. Ive also had a look in the bible that is haynes and they dont have anything in there about the interior (which is strange) and so im stuck...

anyone any ideas? also any ideas on where the new subframe will bolt in?

thanks

erm dunno owt bout the sub frme mate but i know how to take the seats out.
all u do is unscrew 2 bolts that are behind your legs wen u site down they are just normally bolts that are 13mill i think just unbolt them lean the backs of the seat forwards and then bome out easy!
there ya go hope u know where i mean the bolts are behind each frunt seat where ur legs rests wen sitting in the back well they are in mine ne ways. :D

gotta love the uno's
 
eyah i know what i mean... but once those are undone isnt it still attatched to the sub frame at the back?

Also how do i get the old subframe out?

I think the subframe slides onto the runners

ah so it does (i havent tried this yet but i have the idea in my head) ... but what about removing the runners when ive taken the seats out?

not unless the subframes for the seats are supposed to go on these runners? ahh ill just have to wait and see! they are made to order (more like pain in the arse to order) and so i have to wait 7 working days for the seats to be made and then 3 days for delivery... ude think they would speed it up when ur paying £300!..

it depends what u want, u can bolt the seats to the floor and not be able to move them or use the subframes with the runners to use your seats as normal.

In order to do this u will need correct subframes or modified ones

should be fine then, im sure they just slide into the runners, i could be wrong.

Are they buckets or recliners, where u get them from

bucket seats from needforspeed.co.uk

i hope they just slide on the runners... save loads of pulling things out ets... ill have to take the whole carpet to get at the runners properly... and i dont particularily like the idea of bolting them to the floor and not being able to move them as people wont be able to get in the back etc.

i think that is to whole point of subframes to use them on exsisting runners other wise they would be a waste of money if u can knock something up to bolt to the floor
