People like me don't want you too? I'd love you too tbh, would be nice to see your car in it as its a tidy example and a lot of hard work has obviously gone into it.

I just don't like when people go out of their way to get a feature. Its as if you built it purposely to get people to lick your arse.

Thats the way see it anyway. Nothing against you or the car. I think the same about every who trys hard to get a feature.

Yea I agree mate.

Like I said I've said it would be good for them to approach me,IMO mines nowhere near as good as them that get it featured but it would be a achievement.

I'm hoping one day it does though.

It's not a kick in the arse away from being up to a great standard tbh. Obviously there will always be something thaat you want to do to it, I'm sure its the same for every one who gets a feature. Just don't chase it, let it come to you Sorry if I annoyed you

Whens these seats going in Dandan?

I'm trying not to chase it

Like you said... If they wanted to feature me they would.


The seats... I'm getting some mounts made up for them by a mate,they don't quite fit on the corsa frames so a little modding is required. Update soon mate.

Update : 4.7.2012

Tonight I finally got one of my bucket seats in. As I they didn't quite fit on the standard sub frame holes I had to have some mounts made up. So I asked me dad and his mate Pete is a fabricater so he made me some up.

So I set about getting them drilled and bolted together. Dad brought me some bolts and threads home to bolt the mounts to the frame and then used my original 12mm bolts into the seats.

Here's some photos. I still need to find a non adjustable drivers seat. Went to scrappy today and no luck :/








And bolted in,gonna get them painted black

Seat looks at home in the car dan, def powder coat them new brackets, shouldn't cost a lot. Are u sure u can't do anything with drivers side frames? Ie, bolt them on the lowest setting? Surely there's a way, with the seat off twist the front and back brackets all the way vertical, drill your brackets to suit that then when bolted up should go down together, ideally get a non adjustable one, but if u can't try that, il keep an eye out at work if any come in

Seats look cool mate Youve fitted the passenger the same as mine and the drivers isnt any more difficult to do the same way because thats what ive done to mine but it makes the seat sit too high even at its lowest setting so a non adjustable drivers frame is the way to go. Ive gotta get one foir mine too. ive got pics of under my drivers seat so you can get an idea of how to do it if you want to try to keep the height adjuster? hope this helps.
