Question Help! Prodrive Recaro Seat

I have just got hold of an immaculate Prodrive Reacro Seat BUT it does not have the seat side of the seatbelt. Also there is no obvious way to fit these i.e. - no spare bolt. ANy have the seats have any clues? I guess I need to buy something from Recaro. If someone could take a photo for me that would be great.

Thanks in anticipation.

There should at least be a hole to mount one on?
You'll have to undo bolt, undo seatbelt wiring loom and then seatbelt itself from your existing seat and put it on the new one.

Thanks Nick. I double checked the seat last night. There is no 'spare' bolt and there is nowhere obvious to attached the seat belt. I then looked at the Recaro website and my seat look exactly the same as some of them (in that there is no obvious point to attch the seat belt). I will try to contact Recaro, but would be interested in other members thoughts.

Thanks again,

Simon

It is a car seat you're trying to fit rather than a rally one? And its the drivers seat?

If a car one and intended for a Subaru then it has to have a bolt hole on the side - is it a passenger seat by mistake?

Might be designed for harness only?

Thanks people for thoughts/help so far.

I have emailed Recaro, as yet no response.

Recaro tell me I need a subframe. £150. My bargain seat is now not such a bargain!
