I suffered that, but just had a Larini fitted, now I can't even hear the supercharger, let alone any squeeks and rattles eek

On a more serious note, if you have standard seat belts, look at the locking mechanism part as this made the noise on mine?

Mine does the same occasionally- the locking mech of the seat belt down by the left hand side of the seat sometimes rubs against it (makes a creaking type noise). Guess it will still do it if you have the seat far enough forward, even if you don't use the standard belt.

Theres a little bit play on the seat when you sit in it rocking backwards and forwards and its not loose, its always moved. I removed the old seatbelt so maybe the runners..

My seat not only squeeks but it moves forward and back on the runners with fierce acceleration and braking.
Are they all like this?

Definitely no forward or backward movement. May perhaps do it once if the seat hasn't engaged properly with the runner.
