| Bucket Seats And 3dr Cars I have seen some very nice FK Bucket Seats http://www.dcperformance.co.uk/cheap...fkxlse025.html
that i fancy
however im not going to be removing my rear seats, as it is a daily driver and i need to fit friends in the back (even though not much room in a clio  )
i know they are recliner, but i dont think that means that they shunt forward to make a gap for passengers :s so what option do it have?
just shunt seat forward the alter the backrest forward as much as possilbe everytime?

| Re: Bucket Seats And 3dr Cars Through the boot FTW!  Have you contacted them to see if they have a release catch like standard 3 door front seats? If not there are seats available that do so could be worth looking for?
I like them a lot, might buy also

also if there is a nice lady present talk to her while saying everyone in and when your annoying mate tries to claim shotgun say feck off(with just that evil stair you know the 1  ) and you end up with the nice looking bird beside you.
can you tell i used to do this???

| Re: Bucket Seats And 3dr Cars well that would be an option dont think my gf would like it me chatting some lady friend up  so get the seats, "oops mine doesn recline" let them fanny around squeesing in the back, shouldnt be a problem most of the time we just go to each other houses for some beverages, just on the odd occasion me and the missus pop out with another couple for dinner and have to designate a driver, also i tend to take my lil brothers to the after school activities since my mum cant drive and is loaning me £1500 towards the car interest free |

| Re: Bucket Seats And 3dr Cars Copy?  It just so happens my theme is grey and orange...  To be fair I've wanted new seats for the car since I got it as the support is awful, but never did due to the price. 400 smacker for two is good value for leather |

| Re: Bucket Seats And 3dr Cars are you sure the 400 notes is for both seats? it didn't really say much about them.

| Re: Bucket Seats And 3dr Cars It look like there are two but the delivery charge is very low for boxes of that weight so I would also give them a ring just to check. |

| Re: Bucket Seats And 3dr Cars Bucket seats providing they recline work perfectly well in a 3 door car. I had Recaros in my Civic and getting in and the back was very easy. It also didn't bother me though as it wasn't my problem!
Assuming that is both sides (seat and subframe) then that is a very good price. My Recaros (from an Integra Type R) were £650 second hand with subframes.
You won't regret bucket seats as well. Much better support and very comfortable.

| Re: Bucket Seats And 3dr Cars I wouldn't use harnesses with them put it that way. Use OE or FIA approved seats unless you don't mind dying in a crash.
