looking at fitting a pair in my avon, how has people got on fitting them in. Im talking about the standard MK GTS type ones?

Thanks

Pretty easy, i welded 2 25x25 tubes longtitudually to the floor and drilled thorugh, their are 4 M8 inserts in the base of the seat.

A word of caution though, the bottom of the seat is lower than the seat rails where the inserts are, just means you carnt bolt them straight to the floor.

Can I ask how much the GTS seats were? I thought I'd ask you as I know the website is out of date and Darren is a busy bee!

Are you planning on burning the Triton seats on eBay?

PS are the white seats to reflect the Cyprus sun?

Cheers
Steve

As Gaz said with the GTS seats watch for the bottom protrusion when bolting them to the floor.

I have a Nice pair of white ones coming from Darren @ GTS to replace those godawful Triton seats which will be getting burnt soon


It's a good job Mark doesn't bother with this site anymore with morons like you stirring things. Should imagine the GTS ones are copies of the Triton ones anyway

Might be worth checking to see where Triton copied his from before making statements like that
