New Seats do not fit...Help please!

tmb90 · July 19th, 2007, 04:08 AM

Hello, I just recently bought Bomz racing seats for my 02 v6. The exact link of the seats is in the post below. It says it comes with universal sliders. However, I cannot find a way to attach them to my brackets. I need a ton of help, I have no idea what to do :-/ PM me or reply please!

You have to make them work , thats why its universal...

which mens cut / weld / hammer / wtf ever you have to to make them work!

what i would look into doing is taking the mounting brackets off of the stocker and welding them to the new ones... that way they fit the same way you know??

just and idea...

^ probably the best idea..unless the seat has a way to move the seat brackets in an out..

also
lesson 1
never buy anything big universal..by big i really mean over $40

you want the stock sliders welded on not the damn seat welded to the car it wont move and thats not good at all.

well... kinda?

im saying take of the bracket of the bottom of the stock seat... hold it up examine it look at it and then slowly place it down over the new seat... at that point take some tape or something so you can hold it in place then set it in your car to see if it fits and looks right...

make small adjustments and then drill some holes and bolt the sucker down ...

itschristorres8 · July 20th, 2007, 02:44 PM

i was thinking more like
take measurements and kinda pencil mark where to drill new holes
then place in the brakets and slide the seat on
then call it a day

or sell them for mustang seats

hmm, there is an idea...That sounds good...But I am a tiny bit confused. Do I keep the brackets on the stock seat, as well as the metal bars drilled into my car, and the sliders on the new seat?

Onemanzu · July 20th, 2007, 04:53 PM

i would take everything off the stock ones and put it on the new ones...

if that is possible... which means removing all the parts on the new one and going down to the seat bracket mounts... pretty much
