You could try calling / emailing POR Cruisewirral sponsors.
His a fabricator so should be able to help you out.
Visit the sponsor forum. (Paul Oaky Racing) (He has moved premises recently).

Well as theyre universal they'll be close to fitting even if they dont fit,now i suspect if they dont fit straight in they may need bending and drilling to match up to the holes and surely it cant be too expensive...........but then again it may take hours of bending,not just a quick kink

if i got the bucket seats that are in the For Sale section, fixed back Corbeau Forza Sports, would they pass an MOT? i heard fixed back buckets in 3 doors can fail MOTs? and also do you need to use the harnesses or can you use normal seat belts?

Where the hell did you hear that? I know loadsa people with fixed back buckets in their 3drs and not had any problems. You can and should use normal seatbelts, only take them out if you have EEC approved harnesses.

it was on a civic forum, they said if you have a 3door car you cant have fixed back buckets unless you remove the back seats.

think about it logically and it may make sense to not allow fixed seats in a 3 door,how do u get someone out the back quickly in an emergency,after a crash. If they have a back injury they'd HAVE to cut the car up just to get them out,wheras a recliner could be moved enough to get them out fast. Not sure if thats a law or not but maybe it shud be???
