Are 3 door and 5 door front seat subframes the same?
Are 3 door and 5 door front seat subframes the same?
Desperately need a new subframe for the drivers seat to get through an MOT. If 3 and 5 door frames are the same (mounting to the floor, fore and aft adjustment etc] then i can broaden my search. Thanks. Rich

Hi mate.
I would say they are the same. As the 3 and 5 door shells are the same, all
the mounting holes for the seat belts and seats should be the same.
Cheers Mark.

Seat belts definitely arn't, the bottom fixing is a bolt eyelet on a 5 door and a sliding loopy thing on 3 doors. No idea about subframes I'm afraid, the seats do differ but I'm not sure where the mad dutch pivoting happens.

the slider frame (front to back adjustment with the lever under the seat) are the same, everything else is different.

Thanks for the replys, ended up modifying a set of ford runners instead, MOT was getting close! cheers.
