Drivers Seat - Grimsqueaker - 20-02-2011 Is it possible to increase the height of the driver's seat on the Mk2 ?? either by use of spacers OR by fitting a height adjustable seat ?? RE: Drivers Seat - Grimsqueaker - 18-03-2011 still struggling on this folks - any thoughts ? RE: Drivers Seat - stevetiler - 19-03-2011 spacers would do it probably mate RE: Drivers Seat - Coco - 19-03-2011 I used a piece of 2"x1" steel bar. Cut three short sections and drilled to allow the bolts to pass through. Bought longer bolts and fixed it down. The only one that requires a bit of work is the front offside one as it fixes to an angled piece of the floorpan. Again, a piece of the same bar but cut each end on a bevel allowed to bolt through in two places to allow for the offset caused by the frame moving up 1". Make sense? Col RE: Drivers Seat - pk7478 - 19-03-2011 Grimsqueaker It's not safety, especially in a case of road accident. RE: Drivers Seat - Grimsqueaker - 19-03-2011 I take it height adjustable driver seats were not in the options list then (19-03-2011, 09:22 AM)pk7478 Wrote: Grimsqueaker I understand your concern re this, but if the seat is affixed securely with appropriate bolts, there is no reason it should be any less safe than the OEM fitment.... RE: Drivers Seat - pk7478 - 19-03-2011 In my country I will not recieve MOT's certificate because of this "tuning", though I live in banana republic. This mean that car will not have permittance to use my car in a roads of common usage (according to our laws it's a roads where people and cars moves).
