Styling fitting 500 seats in to a panda

[steve w hebburn]

hi, ive been given front & rear seats from a 58 plate fiat 500. would the front seats fit in to my 55 plate panda cheers, steve

Yes, straight fit, except one of the rear brackets needs swapping over.

The rear outside bracket of each seat is different on the 500 seats. I cut the bracket off the Panda seats, same with the 500 seats, and bolted the Panda bracket onto the new seats.

Is there an issue with airbags in the 500 seats?

If the Panda is not expecting them, it will not know if they're not plugged in. With no electricity supply to them they can't pop, so no worries.
