How can I fit these Ibiza red tiger stripe seats into my 1.4 seat ibiza s?
I'm sure it's been done before.

I've got the rears in no problem, but the front ones im having some issues with.

Can I fit the GTI Cupra Tiger stripe seats in to my Seat Ibiza 1.4 S 1999?
YES YOU CAN!
  • Remove the slide retainer under the front of the seats.(this allows you to slide the chair right out)Unclip the plastic rail cover on the center rails, and unclip the end caps on the outer rails.
  • Slide the chair back untill it falls out of the rails, and remove (this is realy good time to give that carpet and old vac down!)
  • On your new seats, remove the plastic trim around the bottom of the seat, and swap this over with the trim from your original seats.Otherwise the trim will catch and you will not be able to fit them.
  • slide your new Chairs in, be sure to line them up properly, its easier if you have one person infront and one person behind to guide them in.
  • replace the retainer bolt on the front of the seats and adjust to your own driving posistion!
  • enjoy!

thanks for the reply Mike, thats confirmed what I thought,
but just to clear it up, when you say seat belt thing, do you mean the retainer or the clip in bit on the seat ?

Wahey!
sorted, I had to swap the plastic trip over from the old seats onto the new ones, the old one was to deep and was catching.
Pictures as requested.
Now I need to fit my spoiler !

I they do pal, It's even got the lever to move the chair forward as you would to get in a 3 door,
shame about the door cards though, I need some 4 door ones!
Gave them a good clean and rub down with back to black, it worked realy well to say it's not listed on the can for application.

I know it's screwed through the glass, and theres glue stuff on it, looks like adhesive film.

Bargin at £80 with door cards to!
I need to get rid of the cards though so if some one wants em for some spare change they're yours!

They're the best upgrade for ease of install :)
