like the look of them, shame they won't work in a 3door


These come out of a 3 door model Mate and have the handle on the side to tilt the back.      Cheers      Deano

Sure there must be a way.....or ou could get a couple of rattle cans. :laugh:

Strange you should say that as the first thing I tried was the rattle cans on the back seat which I was not using anyway :grin: :grin:No Good

Not hard to fit Mate but very awkward. Took some doing to fit the subframes to them and also scrapped the original seats in the process. Took about four hours in total. Price wise you should find a set for about 50quid if you're quick. They sell quickly but are really comfy. I paid 40 quid for these with the back seat but did not attempt to fit the rear seats.      Cheers      Deano

Just seen 3 sets exactly the same as mine on E.Bay with a Buy It Now of 40 quid....well worth the dollar.
