I used the original bolt hole with a longer bolt, spaced it up and drilled the peg hole bigger for tibby seats to fit.
This is a new hole that I tapped but it is not very strong there. I reused the accent bolt here. Also this side sits up on a hump, thats why the other side is spaced up.
Drilled a new hole all the way through the car and bolted the bracket to the car, made my mark where the seat was sitting, drilled, tapped, done. Reuse accent bolts here 10mm 1.25 tap is needed, use a 8.8mm bit to drill.
After I finish my rear brake caliper brackets I am goint to try and put the rear seats from a tibby in to match and go with some black floor mats, plus my seats have grey on them so they match up better then the leather GK seats.
Lengthen the bolts. Then from underneath, make some 1/8 thick steel backing plates to keep the seat from coming out durring a crash. Run these over the longer bolt and add two nuts to hold the plate to the floor of the car. You'll feel better.
These seats are going nowere, The 2 bolts that go all the way through the car have a spacer, lock washer, lock nut and a plate so if that goes through the car in a wreck it's probly not one I will survive. The brackets are 3/8 inch steel so They will hold.
Ya after I paid 400 for em and wanted em in my car but realized i got side airbags and im not hackin up an SRS harness. so i sold em to rob for 200 and recouped at least half my money. But it worked out cause he helped me clear my headlight corners.
hmmm if I can find some here for that price Im def. doing this. I really like that look. Plus I do have some black in my interior so it would match 100%
If you think the seats are cool, you aint seen nothin you need to check out his beta swap. Frikkin nuts dude and loud as hell. Sorry for the double post im just so happy.X)
Yeah I agree...IMO those look nicer than the leather seats...but that's just cause I'd rather have the cloth to match the rest of the interior lol.
Do the GK seats have the side-impact airbags/SRS also, and the harness just doesn't match with the Accent's harness? Or do they not have the airbags/SRS period?
