I've been practicing! Throw my self in head first then the exact opposite on the way out. So I don't look too daft.

One of the lads fell out the passangers side last night but he had been drinking! Still looked bloody hilarious as he slipped out and landed slap bang on the pavement.

They look fantastic.

Are they fixed in place or on runners?

I wanted fixed as you cant fix them anywhere near the existing positions so I needed some tolerance to mess around to get them in the right place for me to reach the pedals and the runners would add extra weight and height.

Also due to the extra width we had to cut away and the transmission tunnel re-glass it and drill new holes for the fixing positions.

Very nice Craig , it probably goes without saying, I assume knowing your attention to detail, the backs of the seats are painted with the same paint code as the rest of the car .
Looking forward to seeing them first hand, if not trying to squeeze into the LH one in the not too distant.
