I did this today... :thumb:
Now, I am not in any way mechanically minded but I managed it :grin:
So here goes!
Started with this little lot:
Plan is to fit this little bad boy in:
And swap for this:
The bracketry:
The cheat method as it's already put together:
Tools required:
May or may not be required...
Remove rear bolts:
Seat is electric so lift up as high as poss and then get it into whatever position that you want it to stay in for storage:
Rear bolt:
Next get these off of the front:
Use the flat head to lift the 'tab':
Amazingly, still not required yet:
Remove front bolts:
Extender needed here:
Lift seat:
Underneath:
The electrics:
Slide this little catch out:
Once removed:
Found a new lucky penny!!!
The seats for comparison, weight/size/bracketry:
I need to lose some weight LOL!
So a comparison of Sport seats/Leather GT3 seat/Nomex GT3 seat:
Sport seat:
Leather:
Nomex:
Spring came off but no worries, as this just helps the seat to slide forward easier:
Few pics to show that the rails are exactly the same:
Seat all together as I swapped the brackets from the Leather to the Nomex:
Trial fit in place:
Bolt back in:
Covers slide back on:
TADA!!!!!!!!
Still not opened a beer:
Is that an alien in my car or is it just pleased to see me?
I was going to do daylight shots but it was raining a little:
Now it's time for Guinness...
I hope that helps/helped someone out :thumb:
