Has anyone got any pictures to show how they fitted recaro seats in their mini i.e how they made their brackets etc. The seats I am using are out of a Rover 800 turbo any pics or drawings welcome.

just welded a piece of flat bar across the runners, drilled 2 holes to pick up on the original mounts in the crossmember and a piece of angle across the back bolted through the floor.

thats how i did my GTE recaro's but my mates fiesta recaros had different subframes on em.
