Yes, pics of them a few posts back. Just the front seats is easy mate. 4 13mm bolts under the car per seat. Zapped em off then the seats are free. Just got a cable to disconnect after
The weight of the panels alone are shocking! There all in a dumpy bag now. It felt heavy to move! Not to mention the seats! Lol. I'm looking forward for the difference in acceleration!
Started stripping the interior today, one bolt that was holding the rear seat on was being a right t***. had to grind it off as it broke my torx!! Lol. Anyway photos of progress -

A bit to do again!!
Did mine myself about two years ago, no rubbing what so ever. Just need to make sure the sleeves are in the right place and give it some good welding ;-)
I did similar to my cup, but in the end pulled them off and just left it with no arch liners. It's extra hassle if you need to remove the bumper etc. Also my brake pipes were touching the deflector plate. MOT issues. I do notice more mud etc though. Also my horns are getting wet causing them to...
I noticed where you put them, are the lower staps actually connected to an eye bolt thats attached to the subframes? Thanks for the info, did you just glue it on? I must agree it looks much better without!
Looking mint mate!! I like how they look, mine should be with me early next week. Are they comfy? Im planning on removing my rear wiper as well, what did you use to cover the hole after taking it off?
Parts have been dropped off today for blasting. I have bought bonda anti rust zinc primer, been advised it's very durable by the paint shop. As a top coat I've gone for a flashy yellow. Called Iveco IC089 Giallo Scuolabus. Hopefully the finished items will look good!
I haven't took the...
Cheers mate, hopefully be back on the road for June!
These mate, but didn't go for the Renault logo as they would have cost £35 per seat more. Don't think it's worth £70!!!
Bucket seats ordered today, should be with me beginning of next week.
Tracked down an old school friend who has a sand blaster. He is going to do the parts for me and paint them up for £50 :-)
Decided on doing the parts yellow, apart from the driveshafts which will be red
Those seats are excellent value for money direct from the supplier, about to order some myself from ebay as well to be honest. Where will you be mounting your harnesses to?
Subframe dropped today, wasn't too hard. The steering rack was the most awkward to get off. I think it will be frustrating putting it back!
Got all the parts together and steam cleaned them. Used gunk to get some grime off the same time. Need to locate a sand blaster now :-)
Removed the brakes, wishbone, hub and driveshafts today. Same plan as the axle really. Sandblast and paint.
I am on the verge of removing the subframe as well. Does not look too hard as I've done the hardest part (I think).
Underneath the cup will look mint all cleaned up and sprayed yellow...
Thanks Keith, what I might do is get a magnetic camber tool so I can roughly check what each side is at and buy different sized shims for each side after.
