fitting buckets to 172 cup

[yeecup]

I have 2 bucket seats mounted on omp subframes which also came with all the bolts etc to fit which I bought off a fellow clio owner. how hard is it to fit them yourself, given I do not have a ramp or axle stands etc, and how much roughly will a garage charge to do it for me. cheers in advance.

You ideally need a jack and axle stands to do it yourself, easy job though. It can be done on the ground, just need a man inside the car though to help.

A garage shouldn't be expensive 1 hours labour maybe?

Wont be able to do it without stands, the 2 bolts in the exhaust well are super tucked. For the price of the labour you could buy a set from halfords and do it yourself

@Arran_ I just used a breaker bar to hold the 2 top bolts while I was under fixing the 2 nuts in the well. Done by yourself just more effort

I count down the days until I can get a 4 door jap saloon with a 6 cyl that has enough space to smuggle Mexicans in the engine bay ?

And where the seats are removed only from the inside!
