Albi 197 - Project Fast Road

Just picking up on your seat mounting idea

These are available from Rentune - https://www.facebook.com/rentune/, looks like they should bolt to the floor (worth a call)

You will need to lower the column a little also as it will feel very high

OK so I've got one seat in, I'm selling the sparco evos as I'm too fat [emoji23]

I've got a pair of sparco pro 2000 in large size.

Not all that straight forward to fit but nothing too major either.

One issue I've got is that the harness eye bolts that came with the TRS harness are the wrong size for the existing seatbelt mounting points.

Can anyone link me to the eye bolts required?

Cheers!

why dont you just return them and ask for a bigger size??

Couldn't do that as they weren't bought from a retailer. So the other pro 2000....

Well one of the holes wasn't threaded, really great quality control there. It's been collected but I may have to wait for a new seat to be made by sparco and sent to me from Italy. I'm a little annoyed as I'm impatient at the best of times, currently rocking this setup at the moment.



Here's a couple of images to show the seat quality issue, one is right and the other isn't!





Got the correct eyebolt now so will get the seatbelts removed at the weekend, harnesses fitted and hopefully get the resistors sorted.

Still loving this car!

Is it fair to say your not having much luck with seats ?

Makes me worry about mine even more.

Nice photos BTW. Car looks lush

I'm having this same problem now... Do you know which was indeed the correct size?
