Can anyone help me find new seat runners for my 96 Chim, I have searched previous posts but with little success. My existing set have part number 4295 stamped on them. The passenger side has had a leak for while and the are rusted solid.
Thanks in advance

Thanks Philpot,
Yes, I did see these and they don't quite look the same and say that they are for late models? In the picture I can't see the seat adjuster?

I am pretty sure these will fit smile (I hope)

Mmmm scratchchin perhaps only late model Chim/Griff? Although never picked up on any difference across the years in previous posts abouts seats etc?

Certainly my early Griff is same as S series and Wedge, must be someone with some scrap seats but salvageable runners?

Just an update on my seat runners,

Thanks for the suggestion,I went with the ones form CBS as they have the adjustment stop on both rails. Although these are set to 230mm you can easily cut the adjustment handle and set the pitch to 335mm to suit the Chim.
As I am short (ish) I also added a 10mm aluminium bar between the floor and the seat runner and 8mm aluminium blocks between the runner and the seat. Also added an extra 2" inch piece of foam to the 'bum' area of the seat and laced it up with 1.2mm chord. Seems to have worked well except for tall passengers !
Now for the driver's side........
