Hi all :D
Today attempted to fit some very smart red and grey mk2 SRi seats to a standard interior in a 1.4i merit, firstly fitted the sun visors which are very very smart and light up :D, Next door cards which were fine apart from the winder hole is larger so need a larger winder, dam left the SRi ones didn't think thered be different :?:
Next then are the seats, the SRi seat have a much better sliding adjusted and has a different mouting device compaired to the merit, did I miss something from the scrap SR when removing the seats?
Anyway was a so gutted that the SR seats didn't fit and the merit seats are terrible i replaced the backs and the seat covers onto the orignal merit seat and mounts just to get them in for the time being, bodge i know but a good one :D the SRi seats have strenghing bar in the sides which the merit ones dont which is another smart upgrade but using the original bottom part of the seat with the SRi cover means the bottom sides are not supported.
Also havn't fitted the rear seat yet as its a 60/40 and the merit one is a one piece, do you need the center mount welded in to fit the 60/40 properly? Can anyone tell me how they fitted 60/40 into a car with a one piece rear seat
TIA
