Ive printed that out...

Problem is the old Calibra subframes are still attached to the seat.

Or am i just an asshole + cant seem to seperate them?

The exsisting Calibra subframes seem to be welded onto the Leather seats + i cant seem to get them apart...

Turn the cali leathers over so that your looking at the bottom of the seat. Find the four bolts that attach to the bottom rgw seat to the subframe and undo!

there like dead bolts / not like allen keys, torque bits, spanners / sockets...

Will the inner holes be threaded for my old exsisting threaded bolts? (the ones which have blue tyhreads in the tutorial)?

Never seen them like that before, the ones I got were out of a J reg cally and had bolts holding the base of the seat to the frame, they out of a later model?

will probably need a centre punch with a hammer to make an indent itno the metal to use as a pilot hole then start with a small drill and then go upto the required size to drill them out.
