Title: Bucket Seats in FC Post by: Leigh (Guest) on July 18, 2001, 12:00:00 PM Does anyone know what bucket seats fit into an FC without too many mods. I don't want to fit Recaro or SAAS type seats, something from another model or make even. They will need to be big enough to support a medium to large arse but narrow enough to allow fitting of inertia reel seatbelts. Thanks, Leigh

It wasnt that difficult just took a bit of time. I used HR buckets in my car because i did not want a head rest. VK Commodore seats would also have worked and been alot more comfortable but any bucket should suit.

I used LJ Torana buckets (mine are out of a 2-door, so they flip forward - which has been occasionally useful when carrying something large in my sedan. Probably not a big deal with a wagon). Similar mounting arrangement to Rod's. I like these seats because they are low-back and only a smidge higher than the stock bench seat, so they don't look out of place. Like the HQ-HJ buckets, they have the easily removable triangular head-rests, so you can have the head-rests in place when on a long drive, but take them out when you don't want the dicky looking things on display ;-) Hope that helps, RET |
