U13 seats into U12
« on: Dec 7, 2006, 08:15PM »
I am looking to replace the seats from my corsair with the seats from a u13 blubird sss. Has anyone done this before and do the back seats fit?
I am sure the front's will be fine,just the back I am concerned about..

Thanks in advance! ;D

Yes the rears do fit fairly well, you need to make up some brackets to hold the seat back to the parcel shelf area, and you need to drill some holes for screws to screw the bottom cushion in.

There is about an inch gap either side of the vertical part of the seat, and the front of the bottom cushion sits forward from the original position by about 2-3 inches.

found that the rears require a bit of modding to fit and the fronts don't fit at all..I did a search but the post regarding fitting u13 attesa seats into a corsair had dissapeared..since i have given my old seats away already do I need to go get seat rails to make them fit? provisding I can take them off??

what a job, I didn't do it myself although I tried very much.
the rails arent interchangable at all.
I now have the fronts/rear seats fitted.
need a engineer to do it but it made a big difference haveing the u13 bluebird seat brackets and the rear seat clips..
