How to fit Ignis sport recaro into a Jimny

Got the runner lowers off, what a pain, dry fitting seat complete to jimny b4, i found front right hand bolt fitting, needed to be cut off, and rewelded onto insde of runner, rear fitting needs to be redrilled approx 1/2 in..inward.
front left fitting would also need cutting off and fitting outboard, and rear left would need compete cut and shut..this is iff, you were to use original mounts on ignis..however , as a plus..i have both my front seats fitted with a 30mm.lift spacer all round, and, i could dispense with these, due to extra height of ignis seat, but, i think it will be more benficial to fit Jimny raqils to Seats.
Hopefully complete today..if i can get it all reassembled..!

Hello, I am going to try a set while I am stuck at home. What size of bar do I need? Also if I don’t have access to a welder, could I use the likes of JB weld?

Thank you, will try get a pal to weld it.

Oh last question. Is the bar on the swift seat the same length? It would be easier for me to get that one welded, as it will enable me to keep my current seats In use.

You can do it without a welder...

The bar from the Jimny seat that needs extended is hollow. I just cut it and used a tap to thread the inside of it out to M6 (possibly M8? i cant remember). I then used a bit of threaded rod and a couple of nuts to secure it. This was handy as it allowed a bit of adjustment to get the length just right and the securing nuts make it stay together properly too

Well thanks to this guide my seats are in. However not driven it yet due to lockdown



Rails are a little stiff, but I am taking out the rear seats. So it doesn’t matter.

A fine upgrade! They will make such a difference!

They even LOOK comfy
