Fitting Bucket Seat Issues.... Need Help

Post by Evilmonkey23 »

I've recently bought some bucket seats and trying to fit them has become impossible,
I don't fancy bolting them straight through the floor as all my mates keep suggesting and I cant find any side mounts for them that fit into my polo.

Any one got any ideas?
Any help would be mint

What would be the disadvantages of just bolting them through the floor?
Apart from the fact I can't move them

Is it a 3 door or a 5 door?

I think bolting them to the floor would be foolish.

Ultimately, the easier thing to do it remove the rails from a set of 6N seats and bolt/weld them onto the buckets.

Check here for subframes
