how did you go about fitting these seats?

want to fit a set into a fiesta turbo....

way i was thinkin of fitting was to get a mate to weld and bolt a set of bars accross underneath and then bolt the fiesta subframes to this!

sorted!

thats what i thought would be best, and aslong as it worked in the corsa im sure it will in a fiesta, a mate had a corsa b and the subframes for the seat were alot more complicated than a fiesta one so im sure it will prob be easier into a fiesta aswell!

will let ya all know how it goes if i do get hold of a pair!

floor pans are similar but subframes are diff!

we fitted some astra gte recaros that came with nova subframes into a mates corsa b.... we had to get them off the subframes and make brackets to fit them to the corsa ones!
