Hi all, just bought a set of leather bucket seats, does any one know where to get the brackets from, or if theres a way of modifying the original seat brackets, what do i do bout the seat belt thingy? iv tried the search but no luck,
Thanks

you will need to go to the makers of the seats or you could try demon tweeks

try Dave at Prolex, he can get the proper seat rails from Japan, i dont think any uk shops will sell them for the altezza

unless they are side mounted seats, then you will need to get a pair of side mounts welded in

The seats from the altezza are the as the seats from the is200, most bucket seats have the same fitting underneath them i think,

its not the seats themselves, as you say most are universal , it will be the mounts to fit an altezza or IS which will be specific

It depends some seats come with the sliders, like mine, but you will need the bracket the goes from the sliders and bolts on to the car, and also the bit your seat belt clips into,
Not having much luck so far, cry.gif

chrisis200

mAltezza
bought them from a shop on plymouth, when i went over 2 weeks ago, not sure what make they are, it doesnt say anything on them, had to get them, there the same colour as my interior, hope monster mat can help,
Rob's Lexx
seen some similar ones on ebay, but not quite as nice.

were they a lot of wonga??

i presume they were sold as a universal fitment seat??
Jamie
Loving those I gotta say smile.gif

Which shop in Plymouth matey?

I'm pretty sure Arospeed made some universal brackets (in fact I'm certain). There was another company as well... Think it may have been one of the big Jap brands... erm... can't remember.

All the best,
Jamie
mAltezza
Ya they were sold as universal, cant rememba the name of the shop, its on the recipt tho, £400 for both so it wasnt too bad,
There is a set of sparco is300 seat brackets on usa ebay which would fit on my seats but they dont deliver to UK,
mAltezza
Iv got someone to make sum brackets up for the seats, now the other problem is, the airbag light, when you remove the standard seats do you just disconnect the air bag wire and leave it there,
if so what do you do about the red flashing light?
mAltezza
Also will the other air bags still work?
mAltezza
seats are now fitted just need help with the air bag light,
Monster-Mat

mAltezza

Monster-Mat
