So I have been looking at these bucket seats for a while and was wondering if anyone has bought them and what subframe they used? I have contacted the company and they said they don't sell the subframe which I thought was odd

I've had my eye on those as well, after seeing what a headrest does to a headlining I want some reclining seats when I get a new headliner in. Didn't know about the lack of subframe though :\ just wish a full interior set I've seen on Huddersfield mini spares was cheaper :(

Ah :/ I don't really fancy the task of making my own either as it may well be unsafe to use, wish there was a subframe for it!

Yeah I'm sure I deffo don't have to skills required to make a good set that I wouldn't feel like are going to kill me in every corner. Just gonna keep saving up for the set I've seen I reckon. Bit on the pricey side but its the full interior so it all matches

Couldn't you just ask them what the measurement is across the runners on the seats, and then compare that to a few seat subframes from elsewhere?

"Each seat is approx 90 cm tall by 50cm wide by 55cm front to back.

The mounting holes in runners are approx 40cm apart."

 

That's what they've said
