charlton Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I've had a pair of bucket seats and harnesses sitting in my room for about a year waiting to go in to the Supra and its about time I pulled my finger out and got them in the Supe... I have some custom seat frames from johnd-mkiv that need drilling but will need some longer bolts to bolt them to the floor. As I don't have a steady hand, tools or the bolts can anyone recommend a garage around Guildford/Woking to do this or does anyone fancy some beer (money) for doing it?

mattdavies Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Just find a local engineering / machine shop prob be cheaper and would take a few minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dim Sum Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Shame I don't live closer, or otherwise I don't mind doing it. It will be very simple, seats are only held on by 5 bolts and then it lift straight out. Align your seat to the custom frame for drilling and bolt everything back job done. Guess it all depends, I like to do most if not everything myself because I don't like the fact I'm paying someone to do something I can. Well you need try or you never going to learn.

I've had the seats out and gave it a go but the standard bolts are too short to go through the frames and into the floor. I just want to make sure it's done right too as I don't want to find out the hard way that I put the seats in wrong! I like to give things a go too, I'm replacing the heater matrix at the moment in my NA - admittedly it has taken me several months but I'm almost there!!
