allye 530 3 Cars Posted December 16, 2014 Side mount or bottom mount? you can either buy a ready made one to fit it, or make some plates to mount it to standard sub frame - although not advised as youll be too high, or make your own subframe to solid mount but you'll have MOT issues. standard bucket seat comment, check your actual mounts in the floor, they can fail.

matty205xs 1 1 Cars Posted December 16, 2014 right ok thanks, ye im on about the bottom mount as I was wondering if the standard 205 seat subrame would be a straight swap with the one already on the seat? and the mounts in the floor of my car are all good and seemed nice and solid. (which was surprising considering the amount of holes in the floor ) thanks matt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
allye 530 3 Cars Posted December 16, 2014 your seat will not bolt straight to the 205 subframe. Unless the recaro subframe is a purpose 205 one that wont bolt in either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wes 86 1 Cars Posted December 20, 2014 Recaro no longer make the frames for 205's so you will have to make something up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matty205xs 1 1 Cars Posted December 20, 2014 right ok thanks, I also found out what car I came out from and it was an evo 4 so some adjustments will need to be made no matter what anyway. thanks matt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
