Seats & Runners

Hi,

Are standard GSi seats meant to have a plastic bit or something on the "hook" bit that fits into the chassis?

My seats seem to have a lot of play - you can push up - and they move a good 1 - 2cm up in the air.

Am i missing something off the seats?

They rattle like hell and its doing my head in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers,

It sounds like they haven't slotted into the rails at the back.
Theres like a metal hook that goes into the rails.
I presume that holds the back of the seat, and the bolts hold the front.
Check its mounted correctly on the rails.

OK - thanks mate- will give it a try - im SURE though that it all went in OK.

Still worried about the fact that the plastic bits that go over the chassis seat mounting points are missing - do you think this is causing some of the vibration?

I believe this is the reason, because my passenger seat (haven't got round to fitting a passenger bucket yet) does the same.
When breaking hard, the entire seat leans forward, which worries the person sitting in it :lol:

Ah - that explains it then!

Will try and get the runners off a scrappy nova then.

Any idea if the seats are supposed to have a little plastic bit on the bottom, near where they hook into the chassis?
