Just finished installing my new bucket seats and harnesses into my car. Had to fabricate some subframes to make them fit securely using a pair of old seat subframe bases, some universal runners and some steel and ally box. I now have much increased leg room and a much better driving position.

Prior planning prevents p**s poor performance.

Looks Good!

The world is a tragedy to those who feel, but a comedy to those who think.

Looking very nice Jason! Will see the car in the flesh soon, and may pop down to Woodbridge next month

Has made a slight difference, still some more weight to shed. Looking into removing the air con and associated pipes etc. If anyone has experience this task or has any advice i would be most gratefull.
