The frame is to actually bolt the 2 parts of the seat together.
When you remove the original frame it leaves the seat in two parts.
After joining the seat back together with my new frames you then choose my adaptors to suit your vehicle

Waiting on my first order of 10 sets of replacement CS frames.
These can be used with existing Trophy adaptors or standard R26 Megane ones.
They are compatible with my VBD adaptors in standard height and lowered versions.
As soon as I get some sets finished I will post them up on the forum.

Cliomods isn’t anything to do with me.
The current price is £150 per seat adaptor for Recaro items from Capital seating.
My adaptors are £160 for the complete front set of both seats.
I don’t supply any resistors etc.
Cheers
As Amos above has said,they don’t fit in on the R26 adaptors and runners.
I can supply my VBD Recaro adaptors to suit 172 etc.
I offer 2 versions;
Standard height at £160
Lowered version £250
Collection from Merseyside or post is £16
Any PayPal fees to be covered.
The lowered version are...
I’ve got my first set of prototypes to lower the Mk3 Recaros here.
I’m hoping to have them welded up this week and then do a test fit.
They have got to go through another prototype stage yet for all the strengthening gussets etc.
Will make another thread once I’ve made some progress.
They...
Been a while since I’ve done any work on my VBD Seat frames to help fit 197/200 Recaro CS seats into a 172 etc.
I’ve designed a replacement frame that bolts the base and seat back together.
This allows you to remove the heavy and very high position original frame found when fitted in the Mk3...
Not driven it much as yet but what I instantly noticed was how direct it feels.
It changes direction more precisely and doesn’t pitch and roll as much.
The ride isn’t any harsher in my opinion.
140 was a 5 door and I always had a bit of a struggle getting in it.This is mainly down to my dodgy...
I asked the question but he had nothing to add.
I’m sure towards the end of the month there is news on the way.
Wasn’t an option for us to even consider.My guesstimate is getting on for £55K.
Can’t see any contributions for a while but you never know.
My other half was just a bit unsure on the noise.
She didn’t want a boy racer sounding car from the inside.From the 40 mile drive home I wouldn’t say it’s any noisier in the cabin than the 140.
She also loves the look of it now after not being sure of everything being black.

The girlfriends replacement for the 140 arrived today.
Black M2,nicknamed “BatMobile” from my son upon seeing it.
She’s not driven it yet as I thought I’d do the gentlemanly thing and offer to drive it home ;)
Spec is;
HK sound
Privacy glass
Folding mirrors
Elec seats
Heated seats...
Do you notice the LSD in the car ?
Does the M dynamic mode alter the lock across the diff ?
Never drove one so intrigued to feel what it’s like compared to the 140.
Love the M2.Was looking at these,unrealistically at the time when I ordered the M140 for the Mrs in July 16.
So much road presence and aggressive looks.
Noticed some fantastic deals over the last few months and stumped up the guts to order one a few weeks ago.
She’s gone for a black one with...
My E5 RS.
Currently at CPP getting fully serviced and geometry done before going up for sale.
Got something else coming and this just doesn’t get used.
I’ve covered less than 500 miles in the 3 years I’ve owned it.
As far as I know it’s 1 of 3 known to exist in red.
I’d love to hear if any...
The plug in endoscopes for phones are now really cheap.
Has anyone experienced one on an iPhone?
Would be useful on Car restorations we work on to find hidden rot etc.
eBay is a wash with them around £15-20 which seems a bargain.

Currently doing a few running repairs on a red Makinen.
Car has been used everyday over the last 8 years by the owner.
Nothing new in way of areas affected by rust.
Most of the problems are down to design.The chassis legs are multi-skinned in certain areas.The joints are prone to rusting away...
