mk1super Posted January 8, 2009 Report Posted January 8, 2009 Ok ive been offered some S1 turbo seats for my mk1 escort, are they easy to fit into an older escort and do they weigh alot as i dont want the car too heavy. And will i sit any higher up as im a short ass
BIGKEV Posted January 8, 2009 Report Posted January 8, 2009 They do weigh a bit more Sit on a cushion shortass
mk1super Posted January 8, 2009 Author Report Posted January 8, 2009 They do weigh a bit more Sit on a cushion shortass Its the old low back peasant spec seats ive in an i can hardly see the end of the bonnet
LEONMEX Posted January 8, 2009 Report Posted January 8, 2009 i have them in mine mate & they are fitted to different runners & bolted through the floor,the original escort runners have been cut out the car & i think they are fitted to mk2 fiesta runners that both bolt straight down so you sit nice & low. They are heavy seats though but you won,t really notice it on the road will get some pics later
LEONMEX Posted January 8, 2009 Report Posted January 8, 2009 will get another pic later as i don't have the kirkey seat anymore
mk1super Posted January 8, 2009 Author Report Posted January 8, 2009 Bolted through the floor If anything iam trying to sit slightley higher
LEONMEX Posted January 8, 2009 Report Posted January 8, 2009 my doris drives the escort & is 5 foot 5 & can see fine,it ain't that bad really.
mk1super Posted January 8, 2009 Author Report Posted January 8, 2009 Poverty spec lol Now has mountney wheel and seat belt pads got turfed in bin Oh and some proper floor mats. To be honest you sink into seats comfy but there knackered
MK2Ed Posted January 8, 2009 Report Posted January 8, 2009 Alex I can't see your pics as at work so can't see the full story ......... but get the straps replaced underneath by a trimmer, then you'll sit much better and won't sag into the seat like a beanbag... You should sit low in an Escort anyway, well lower than a modern car... But if it was me I'd go for MKI or MKII "sports" seats at the newest....
