glenn ford Posted December 31, 2023 Report Posted December 31, 2023 looking for a set of 2 plastic sliders ( dont know there proper name) the bits that go on the carpet that allows the seat to move back and forth over, so you dont damage the carpet ?
Ray Posted December 31, 2023 Report Posted December 31, 2023 if theyre what i thinking your asking for, firstly youd need to know side, as one on each side is handed, but they generally come as a set of 4, for both front seats, and stage 1 motorsport do the set new
glenn ford Posted December 31, 2023 Author Report Posted December 31, 2023 hi Ray thats great thanks, i shall go to stage 1 and have a look many thanks Glenn
glenn ford Posted December 31, 2023 Author Report Posted December 31, 2023 hi Ray just had a look, i have a pair of drivers side, but i may as well get a set of 4, so thanks for that
glenn ford Posted December 31, 2023 Author Report Posted December 31, 2023 hi Ray i am confused now, i thought the flat parts of the siders went on the carpet, and the piece with the lip on went on the tunnel to stop the seat rising up, but looking at stage 1 site, they sell a pack of 4, so i am lost now ? thanks Glenn
Ray Posted December 31, 2023 Report Posted December 31, 2023 all 4 screw to the floor, my car that has them, dosnt have anything over the tunnel runner the seat naturally has a loose side to it so to speak, where you can lift it a bit before the seat clip catches on the tunnel runner the result is seat movement when your driving, thats the way they are
Ray Posted December 31, 2023 Report Posted December 31, 2023 the riser on the side stops the rear of the seat sliding skew, maintaing the seat release clip to be correctly located against the tunnel
glenn ford Posted January 1, 2024 Author Report Posted January 1, 2024 thanks ray thats the pic i saw on stage 1 yesterday, its the bit that holds the seat down thats what i could do with a picture off, my car has had a new floor so not sure if there is something that should be welded to the flor, that holds the catch on to, to stop the seat from lifting up ?

glenn ford Posted January 1, 2024 Author Report Posted January 1, 2024 hi Ray many thanks mate, thats exactly what i mean, i have the two brackets, and didnt know if they went on top or underneath the carpet !!!, but looking at that 1300e i can see they attach to the steel, and the carpet is cut around it, that is perfect, may thanks, and i have brought the screws to attach the floor plates from Billy at Escort RS so all sorted now
glenn ford Posted January 1, 2024 Author Report Posted January 1, 2024 oh just one more thing, are they bolted or riveted to the tunnel?

glenn ford Posted January 2, 2024 Author Report Posted January 2, 2024 bugger, i knew they hadnt done it right, means i will have to take it apart now and get them welded on cheers for that, would rather do it right than just bodge it 1
