Seats upgrade

[GXLE 2]

I used Calibra front seats , ideal for a 2 door

[Mangler 20]

I've got a pair of Recardo's out of a Capri 2.8 inj in the dutch lady at the moment,mind you I had to bolt a piece of 40mm X 6mm flat steel on the one side to bridge the difference between the mounting for the Cortina runners.Not perfect but it works.

John Mack is right. Scorpio leathers fit str8 in apart from modifying the rear seat base to lower it by about 1.5 inches.

I was lucky enough to get a MINT CONDITION set on EBAY for just £95 + postage.

Only thing is that my car is a 4 door so you might have to play around with the front seats to let big peeps in.

 

Hi, apologies for resurrecting a very old thread (some forums don't like that, but I don't really understand why it matters??).

 

Anywho, I am surprised to read that Granada rear seats fitting straight in a mk3. I have never tried, but we used to have a set kicking round years ago, and it looked way to big for the Sierra XR4i I had at the time. What's needed to lower the base?

 

I need a rear seat for my mk4, and if they fit, then the black leather would be perfect to match the seats I have sourced for the front.

 

And can I please confirm - is the above referencing the Granada Scorpio (mk3)? Or the later "buy-eye" Scorpio?

 

Thanks!

Both , you need to make a simple angle iron frame to mount the seat base one.

I have a full MK3 leather int ( the front heated & electric adjustment is wired up) in my MK3 est .

Would just need mechanism modding to tilt for a 2dr or just power them full forward.

Brill, thanks for confirming. I only need the rears. I'll have to see if they a are still in my dad's loft. Thanks!
