Hi guys, Looking to fit my "universal bucket seats" over christmas period and wondered if anyone knew what brackets are appropriate for them. had a quick look at the guide to what seats fit in minis and these did come up fitted in a mini.

 

anyone have any idea where i can get the brakcets for them?

i just took a pair of these out of my mini and due to the weird length of the runners supplied with the seats i had to buy classic mini subframes (link below these are the cheapest) and unbolt the sections that go from the runners to the car and bolt them onto the runners supplied with the seats.

Hope this helps :)

you don't use the runners in the link, you use the two cross sections that bolt onto the runners this is only if you have the existing runners on those universal bucket seats as the runners on the universal buckets are shorter in length i had the same problem.
