Styling bucket seats

Hi mate, if you get the subframes as well, you should be able to make em' fit, with a bit of work, depends on the subframes really how easy it is. The cobra's i have in my Uno came out of my mate's Cinq and they fitted fine, they had universal subframes as cobra don't make frames for cinq's. But he managed to get em in perfect without much work. (tho he is a welder and fitter so he can make almost nething fit). But the frames weren't to suited to the Uno so just bolted the front of the frames into the original holes left by the other seats, then drilled some holes into the floor and bolted the back of em straight to it.
So in short yes mate they should fit.


***sorry about the really long 'yes'***

Mk1 Uno 45 S
 
Yep. Ive got Cobra fixed back buckets in my Cinq.

They were in the car, but Ive mod'd a subframe so it tilts!

when i get some seats i really want 3pnt harnesses but i dont really want 2 take up my back seats, do the harnesses have 2 go through the seats?

yellow sporting, Remus exhaust, clear repeaters and door sills that say cinquecento.sparco strut brace. Planning 2 get hormann widearch.
 
Nope. Mine are bolted to the same bolts as the lower mounts for the rear belts- the area around this bolt is double if not triple thickness from standard (im comparison to the rest of the arch), so it just needed some fettling with a lump hammer to get them in, cos otherwise yu cant move the seat!

does ur seat recline? thing is i want the harnesses and i dont mind havin no bak seats but in the summer me and me m8s wanna drive 2 the coast but i wont be able 2 cos they wont b able 2 get in.
 
Nope. Fixed back.

It tilts, and people can get in the back....its a little difficult, but even my mum can do it! She'd probably claim that if she can, anyone can...but I think she's a bit scathing!

Its got quite a bit of room in the back too, but the front definately isnt suited to those with long legs!
 
oh rite sounds pretty cool. mite have 2 take that into mind. my seat is quite far back so theres about 5 inches of leg room in the back. do u just un-hook the harness when peeps need 2 get in the back then?
 
Ive got a double release harness on the passenger side.

Thats got a belt buckle in the back mainstay. That will undo, so the seat tilts....the subframe needed some modification to anchor the lower LHS eyelet to it though
 
i had a pair of corbeau forza's in mine! corbeau make frames that fit straight into the cinq but i have to say i wasnt very impressed with the finish on them! they work but look a bit rough,anyway, remember to get seats that fit width wise! dont get seats that are too wide or when you try to shut the door the edge at the top of the seats will hit the window!!!
 
didnt go as far as getting harnesses fitted! ny girl got a bit fed up with the seats plus one night i had to take her sis to her training thing at the royal naval base and my girl came along for the ride but because my seats didnt recline she couldnt get in through the door!

she had to climb over the back of the seat to get into the back!!

thats when i decided enough is enough and sold them!

it was lovely going fast around corners and getting totally held in by them!
