supra digsey Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 hello after pulling my supra out the garage (+ renewing my membership lol) i picked up a set of bucket seats i was hoping to fit.. there unbranded and came with universal runners..how do i go about fitting them? do i need to weld flat bar across and bolt them (i did this in my clio years ago but im not sure it would do the job) or trying knock up something from the orignal seat runners? any info would be much help thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skippyboyo1 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 (edited) no welding should be needed man,Use your new seats and attach the runners of you old seats too them, ive done it twice now with no issues however ive obviously not seen the seats you have. I fitted honda seats in mine and they went straight in <!--url{0}-->[/img]</p><p> <img src=[/img] Edited June 13, 2012 by skippyboyo1 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackin_n_bashin Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Interested to see where you've bolted the harness too Skippy? As you've no roll cage or harness bar and your rear seats seem to still be in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra digsey Posted June 15, 2012 Author Share Posted June 15, 2012 the seats are smaller than the supra frames... the bolting points are 14" apart instead of 16" so i was thinking.. weld a small flat bar across on the front runner then a large piece of tube on the back.. grind off the fixing points and weld them to the bar then screw the universal runners to the flat bar.. would this be viable?? any info would be great thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
