Was thinking of getting some fixed back buckets to go in the front of my car, I have more than 2 people in the car a lot so I need rear seats to be functional.

I was thinking of getting a tilting sliding subframe for the passenger side and a normal fixed subframe for the drivers side, think is will it be possible to just stick with the standard seat belts because if I were to go for harnesses then I would lose rear seat to get a mounting point.

Is it practical to have this setup, has anyone here got it and could tell me what they think of it honestly??

Cheers,
Sean.

Yeah I was thinking about telling them all to GTF but then again I was thinking it aint just mates, its sometimes women, can't expect them to drive, the roads would be a scary place.

What about getting recliners instead of fixed buckets?

can you actually get a subframe that slides and tilts?

i didn't know. if you can then i think it would work ok.

i've seen ppl use the standard seat belts. although how cool do harnesses look!

can't you just get the women to sit with their legs apart with the harness straps comin out the middle?

fixed buckets are way to uncomfortable for everyday driving.
