You can still have the rear seat fitted with this although i'm not sure how this will stand for the MOT as i beleive if it's there then you need access.

Recaro Spa looks a nice seat. Was is difficult to fit? did it throw any lights on the dash disconnecting wires when removing the standard seats?

Dont plan on crashing if I can help it but I do find the full harness holds you well through the long/fast corners

Quite easy to fit. I made my own floor mounts and used Recaro side mounts and a Recaro slider.
Just make sure you dont turn on the ignition with the seatbelt harness unplugged. That is what will throw up a fault.

My original seatbelt clip and pre-tensioner cartridge is now fixed through the side mount using a hi-tensile bolt. This means i can still retain the original belt.

I have some decent pics which i will post tonight.

Would you be interested in making a seat bracket ? (as long as it comes with 4 hole bungs) I saw the one you did at Silverstone very good job, if so how much.

Hahaha 3 bungs is plenty
Really dont have the time at the moment to fabricate stuff, putting an inspection pit in the garage so thats taking all my spare time.

Heres some pics of my current set up.

Floor mount finished and ready for fitting.




Seatbelt mounted through side mount.






Rear belt mounts into ISOFIX bolt holes




And the seat all fitted








Anything I can help with please feel free to ask.
