i had the older style, if your slim youll be rolling about in them there heavy and not the best looking as they are obviously a cheap seat.
best thing i did was to upgrade to a decent set of seats.

yeah cheers they aint staying like it i have a cage to go in and ill be mounting them on that this is just temp till that goes in.
you mean to have them crossed over? they have to be mounted higher like shoulder level for them to be mounted right.
yeah it flashs i know it wasnt the chip that had it the chip was used cus the engine has cams and the chip in my old one wasnt for cams so switched them over. and theyre all using a chip holder no chips are actually soldered in.
brett nah they dont you get your problems as with any car but...
indeed best method that and a scraper with like a inch tip is best any bigger and its gets abit hard to get it up.
worked in the last car with a 50mph head on smash :P but yeah im getting proper mounts done soon enough when the cage goes in ect.

so it dont pop out? its a common thing on the mk1s that they pop out and when they do they wear a little groove so it makes it easyer to happen again its only taked in so can easily enough be removed just makes it harder to lol.
coops has the fastest daily car i belive but a chap had a r5 gtt engine in one and that was quicker on some huge slicks not sure on the time backyardracing if hes on here.
well with the car proving super reliable (3 days without breaking) i decided to crack on with the work i needed the carpet and door cards for the car going to the insurace so they cant see the weld marks from the cage lol.
if im honest i hated having a interior it sounded boring car handled poor...
