What front seats are best??? Going to the scrap yards tomorrow.

Had Saab seat but were too high for my short @rse.

Now have Porsche seats and ok for me but Sally's gonna struggle without platform shoes.
Cheesy peasy to fit, just line up rail edge against walk through side - which due to the dip in the tub can only go in one position drill it (and wire up electrics if u have them).

My drivers seat had a circuit board for seat memory, threw this away and wired switches to drive motors forward and reverse.

 

Im thinking these




But I think the subframes will raise it too much

 

I think your right, surely drilling new holes with decent bolts and nuts etc would be safe. Nice and low too

 

I like them low back cobra buckets i reckon they would look good too

 

I have wanted them for ages now, good price too

This is why im getting them

 

At risk of sounding like a broken record I know, but get some pukka VW T2 seats? They are comfy. They adjust. They are the right height. All these car seats are designed for half lying down in a CAR where the floor is 6" below the seat. You have a van not a car and are required to sit upright to drive it so get the right seats.

I did 300 miles in mine the other weekend and got out fresh as a daisy.

 

Im with Zed on this one, get a pair of stock seats.
Being a trimmer ive refurbed and fitted all sorts of seats to buses in the past but just refuse to do it now.
All car seats are too high whether from a sports car or saloon and you will have to compromise on safety and comfort.

 

Refurbing the VW seats is fine if you've got the money. But scrap yard seats are £20 - £50 tops a pair.

 

I'm sticking with our stock seats. The upholstery is looking a bit worn on them but I think I may give the Mad Matz covers a go, I was very impressed with their cab carpeting that I fitted recently so hope the quality is the same on the seat covers.

 

I found a pair of Subaru legacy seats for a tenner each, thay were dead easy to fit and are very comfortable,
no issues with hight and i am 6ft4 tall

 

I've got some Hyundai coupé seats - sit at a good height and are adjustable on their stock runners.

Before that had Vauxhall Omega Elite electric seats which were OK but not a lot of room between seat and wheel hence the change.
