Sparco Buckets (What Frames?)

[RichMcc]

Can anyone give me a little advice here?
Im gonna order a set of sparco evo seats >clicky<

I know they're side mount but Im a bit confused with the sub frames.

Do I need >these< ones?

What about a slide adjuster? I assume I need to buy those if I want to move the seat?

Help! lol

not to sure about the clio my mate has got a r5 turbo with the cobra imola r's in and he had to get the side mount seats they are a fixed bucket so he had to take the old subframes out and drill the holes for the side mount frames
word of warning though his failed the mot with side mounts in

How come it failed? Im "getting to know" my MOT guy now so I'll check if it would be a problem.

i cant remember excatlly it was something to do with the seats bein held at the side and if there was a crash the side mounts would buckle and they were fia approved seats which arent road legal and there is some thing on tweeks about that but we knew the mot guy so we got away with it but the only way to get round it now is to get to know ur mot guy and persuade him to class them as standard seats

Well depends if they are that clued up I suppose. My garage seem to be better at finding mechanical faults etc than worrying about chaff. Which I guess makes sense because they wont make any money from telling me about the seats but if the pads were low or something like that they'll be right on it expecting to be paid to fit new ones

So does anyone know if these are the right frames?? Do I need the slide adjustor?

Hi!

I have a pair of Clio sub frames for sale which came off a pair of Sparco fighters like this ...

Here is the photo of the bottom mounted subframe ...

Here are the sliders ...

Sorry if I have done wrong by posting these here but it seems I can't post in the "for sale section"

Looking for £40 the pair inc sliders
