Retrofit height-adjustable seats to 16v

[u33db]

Yo,

my phase 1 1.8 valver seats arent height adjustable but id like them to be so the seat can go lower! I take it its just a matter of me getting a seat frame from another clio to suit and bolt it in but will result be able to go lower than my non-adjustable seat can?

Can anyone recommend a suitable donor car for the adjustable part?



Thanks!

Didnt the Phase2 Valvers have adjustable driver seats? I know Williams did..

Yep, phase 2 valvers have height adjustable seats.. so just get some subframes from a phase 2!

RTs dont have height adjust tho.

 

[DeanRSi]

yeah sorry, the PH2 subframes from the RTs will do the job, not the actual seats themselves.

Ah, I thought you needed the whole lot from a 16v..

Thought the frames might be different..

Arwell, hehe.
