Will Clio Cup seats fit a 2002 DCi?

[Nash]

The seats in my Clio DCi 2002 are a bit tatty - so i bought some Clio Cup 2004 seats off ebay.

my DCi seats have side airbags..........the cup seats dont.

that doesnt bother me, what does bother me is, if i unplug the air bags from the seats, will the air bag light come on on the dash?

thanks

yes

 

[Nash]

yes

i thought so....

damn

ok, if i unplug thre seats, cut the plug off and then twist the wires together wont that trick the system into thinking the air bags are still there?

Or you could sell the cup seats and get some nice FF ones. You need a resistor to stop the lights coming on.

resistors are required from maplins dead cheap! theres a few guides on here!

Excellent, i just found the aftermarket seat fitting guide on here so i'll get the 3.Ohms resistors and follow that guide, looks simple enough.

seems a common problem with certain clio front seats, they Tear or splt at the joint between the back rest and the seat
