Standard seat subframe

[Ibiza125]

Hi,

I have recently bought a new blue standard Ibiza Cupra interior, but one of the legs on the passenger seat is slightly bent.

Now I don't really want to bend this back obviously as it would be weaker, if not just break!

So I was wandering if they are detactable? I could just go and have a look but I thought I would start a thread which was different!


Cheers,

got to scrappy. buy a mk4 polo seat. strip and swap.

if you look har enough some polos had height adjustable passengers seats.

or just bend it back...its steel and would be fine

Id say bend it back...but it depends on how bad its bent really...wouldnt worry about it being weaker to much at its not subjected to that much force...

untill you crash then thats what hold you in lol

could you heat it up when you bend it back would that keep the strength

Its only held by an 8mm bolt anyway...

howd you work that out? there is a 6mm bolt at the front to stop it derailing but they aint held in by bolts

Thats the one i ment at the front is it 6mm thought i read some where it was 8mm..??

dont really think it matters what size bolt its held in by, its a difference of 2mm, which has nothing to do with holding the seat in anyway, as hooch says it just stops the seat going too far backwards...
