Mate tbh your better off just gettin harnesses aswell. Obviously you can keep the standard belts, but its a weird fit and isnt the safest thing. Why dont you want harnesses?

[sbatstone]

i suppose you are right mate, i want a luxury look interior with brown or creme leather but i want it to be safe as well. maybe i should just look at getting a retrim or buying some pre-trimmed seats.

it can be done and very easierly as well it one bolt it how i have done mine and went through its mot no pobs

[sbatstone]

how did you do it?

[boarer2004]

how did you do it?

like i said it like one bolt if ur sittin in the drivers seat theres a casing down by ur left hand it a weird screw but easy done if u take both seats out and remeber to detach the pretentioner airbag clip under each seat , once out take case off the side of each seat leaves u with the pretentioners on show there is on massive bolt like 17 -18 mm undo tht and simply remove and atach to bucket seats in the same way take of massive bolt add pretentioner and screw bk down

That will look good with a luxury brown interior mate. On a persoanl opinion i would go with harnesses, gives it a better look.

but cant have people in the back thts the problem i had as im like a taxi driver for my m8ts lol

[spoon_19]

Yeah thats true lol i am too.

But if your putting buckets in do you not think it would restrict the passengers in the back? They are quite big seats your looking at :S

[boarer2004]

no it dont really just dnt pick anyone over 6 ft up as then leg room is sparse but about same as normal standard seats

[spoon_19]

lol fair enough. I want buckets but i think the back seats will go when i get some, Doesnt look right in my opinion, but then it definately depends on what seats you get as some are lower than others i think :D

[westie-rossi]

them ones your lookin at there are quite nice to be fair nt exactly dear either, mite get some maself lol

[boarer2004]

looks abit wierd tho so bristol seller or something but then says location germany ???

[sbatstone]

i was a bit unsure at first, but i had a mate buy from there first and they arrived.

[boarer2004]

well u cant go wrong at the price :P

[sbatstone]

but can seatbelts be attached to them?

[sbatstone]

could somebody please let me know if it 100 percent possible to use seatbelts with the above bucket seats. major rep given now.

[spoon_19]

Well if your mate bought some did he not attach his seatbelts? :S

[sbatstone]

no he has harnesses. and didnt get them for a saxo.

[spoon_19]

Oh right. Sorry mate cant help then, try what boarer2004 said?

This is basically the same as how mine is set up :) I would have harnesses but then cant really have back passengers. Passed through MOTs no probs :y:

[AlexB]

i had harnesses andd a rear seat that regulaulr had people in
buy dual release harnesses (with a clip behind the seat back)

you can put them to the highest point of the rear seatbelts
you can disconnect recline the seat put people in and reconnect

there not even in the way for peoples heads

[j8nno]

the seats your looking at are from a good company. There is a bolt where the seat reclines so your pretensioner can fit!

could you please show me what harness you mean? :)

[Jake_P]

yes mate you can defo attach the standard belts to those seats!

[stingray]

Yes standard seatbelts will fit on those seats no problems:y:

[stingray]

Alex-VTS means this type of harnesses

As you can see from the picture you have a seatbelt type clip above the shoulder straps which un-clips to allow you to use standard seatbelts instead of the harnesses...handy for when rear passengers need more room.

[Mystic]

All you need to do is reattach the seatbelt pretensioner to the subframe.

Its acctually risky having buckets and harnesses if you dont have a rollcage. Should you end up on your roof, a harness will hold you back in the seat making the first point of contact the top of your noggin!

[sbatstone]

i brought them
i will make a thread when i recieve them and when i fit them

cheers for the help guys!
