Installing aftermarket seats

Hi all,

Ok I am installing after market fixed bucket seats.

I have already removed the old worn out low backs from the rails and I have welded plates onto the rails for bolting of the seats.

Last night I did a pre drill test fit to see how it would all feel etc. I noted that the steering wheel is actually going to be slitely off center if I put the seat in the middle of the rail.

I am wanting to know if (when other people have installed their after market seats) put the seats off center or left them center. (by off center i mean bolted closer to the center tunnel)

All help is greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Matt.

Mine are offset, (Cobra) as thats the only way it would fit....

Your engineer that is certifying them will be able to assist in what requirements there are legally. Fixed seats means registered as two seater only in a two door car.
