Hi guys,

I'm looking for a pair of seat for my jem and I need to find a way to fix them on the car.
The problem is, I'm 183cm and I cannot use a regular seat recliner system so which system did you use ?
Just bolts through the floor ?

Hi,
I had lots of trouble getting seats small enough to fit comfortably. Once the seats are in, it's difficult to access the rear area without a hatch so I obtained seats that tipped forward and to get easy access for bigger items I fixed the front with cotter pins which are easily removed. I used a 'U' bar fixed below with large penny washers. See pic. where you can see the two tipping positions. Unfortunately it's not readily adjustable and just set up for me

Yes, you can just bolt them to the floor, or use flat runners so they can be adjusted. If you want to use runners and have a carpet it helps to put some battens under the runners to raise them above the carpet.

Ok I just choose to bolt them to the floor, I cannot seat on them with an subframe without ceiling problems with my head.
