Now that I've got my new seats and finally decided how I'm gonna get em fitted, does anyone know anywhere that'd make and weld in some seat rails and also sort me a harness mount on the transmission tunnel side?

This is what I mean by seat rails



Seats have already been sat in my bedroom for a week or so, and even tho they are quite nice to sit in whilst playing on my Xbox, they are meant for my car so I'd like to get em fitted asap

Why not just buy some that are made for your car/chairs?

theyre side mounted, so a normal rail wont work.

the welded in rails are very permanent and you would need to cut the original mounts out.

tbh your best off doing something with the standard rails and adapting them abit.

As Bieransri said, the seats are side mounted, they're designed to be fitted like this as opposed to subframes

I was planning to get some sidemounts made up that would fit to the standard subframes, so I could still have them adjustable for when I have to park in tight spaces but since fitting my driver's harness, the adjustability of the standard subframe has been very restricted, they use eyebolts which now catch on the transmission tunnel so there's very little adjustment, so I've decided to go straight for getting em welded in. I know it's permanent but I'm planning to keep the car for a good few years yet and I can't see it ever getting sold as a whole car so I'm not really worried about it being permanent

Just doing a bit of homework and I've found G N T Engineering in Widnes Website

Anyone had any experience with these? Seems like the sort of thing I'm looking for
