Show me your bucket seats

Ok so my Corrado is completely striped out ready for seats was thinking bucket seats. I have heard the runners can be a pain and that they sit rather high? So any info and pictures to help me make my mind up would be great.

 

Thanks Dan

I would say it depends on the usability of your car. Bear in mind that if you put non reclining bucket seats in that you sacrifice access to the back.

I just modded a set of frames I had got and they were going to waste. Same with the seats really, as I had bought them for another car But they fit perfect in the corrado. Obviously it might have been easier to buy frames made for the car. I had aluminium blocks made to adjust the height slightly. It's easily done as most bucket seats have a flat base.

They look really good! Typical I have just sold my front seats with the subframes :( looks like you made a really nice job of yours. I don't have the tools or knowledge to do that lol

The only reason I'm doing all that custom work is because I didn't want to waste the frames I had that were for a different car. I got them with the seats and got the lot for about £120. I got a bit of a bargain I think. If you buy the correct frames to start with you could just bolt them in. Only allen keys or spanners needed. if you do need to adjust frame to drop them down a bit just get a mate who has a welder to help out. It's usually not too hard to sort something like that out.
