If you're bothered about it being angled back at a tilt why not put a 1 inch spacer on the front support rail so its pre-tipped ?
 
Ahh bugger :( only other option, chop out the entire seat mount and build your own

Or I could swap you two range rover seats for the front two ?
 
Yeah, mine is a 300.

Can't just them off and lower, as the slope of the transmission tunnel will stop the rails being any lower, as I need to fit them pretty much by using the exisiting holes nearest the tunnel - sods law....


sell the fookers then and get summat that'll fit.


Fancy buying a set of seats that don't fit?? Must have more money than sense :p
 
They sit about 1-2 inches too high for me, since i am a tall bugger to start with (6'4)

As for buying them, thought they would be ok, and took a chance, esp with a welder etc, but not on this occasion..... listed on fleabay hopping....
 
That wont pay for any replacements :(

Don't suppose anyone is a member of a merc forum??
 
I guess they will fit anything without that stupid cut out sloping transmission tunnel part....that isn't even needed when I checked underneath :mad: or happily in a Disco if you are under 6 foot :D

If I get no sniffs, might have a proper look at the Mrs's MG to see if they will go in there.....
 
cool, I need to sort out my seats, I checnged them for ones from a 200tdi ES (manual seats)
They feel great and fit well but I needed to change the bases to the old ones from my XS, simply moved the covers and the foam but I was under pressure to put it back to gether so the backs are a bit of a botch and are not quite high enough so I struggle get them uprightr again if I have reclined them. Like when I slept in Pembrooke waiting for the ferry
I'll see if I can get to this weekend and sort it out. Hopefully the nice man at ballysimon motorworks would have fitted my steering box by then!
 
Right, I reckon these seats will fit in a 200 or a 3 door 200/300 that doesn't have the sloping transmission tunnel if you aint a tall bugger like me and want to lower them - or maybe a manual if they are different to the auto.

So is anyone interested that may have one of these versions, and will let them go for a song.....say £150.00 to the first member interested as taking up huge amounts of space in my garage that I could put to better use??
