Into the third week of replacing the original (violet crumbled) seats in the GT. Got these seats cheaply from dismantlers Jepps Cross. They fit and siut, only problem is the runners and mounting points are offset and completely different from the originals. Soooo...
The measuring and drawing of adaptor plates. I got them back from the metal fabricators today and quickly learnt they had missenterpreted what I had told them in a 20 min conversation in detail. The opposing seatbrackets weren't a mirror image as requested and some angles were missenterpreted. Anyhow, a quick trip back to them and we can rebend and modify the existing brackets.
not happy Jen but its all about perseverence. Meanwhile, back in the "bat cave" some pics of the empty GT (MT GT). Brad on the floor, the old seats (don't take the covers off, aagh, violet crumble all over the shed), the new seats (much like what i've seen of a Late model GT). Should have revised brackets next week. Wll put next pics up when installing.B.
(and witt). I threw the epson box in just to get that kind'a comment. I figured compliance might be an issue, but my moderate driving style shouldn't attract much attention. (did I say "moderate" and GT in the same breath? 
) The aim is to improve driver saftey and comfort although legallity is questionable. In the worst case I can still put the old seats back, and maybe one day I'll afford to reapolster. Oh, and the pretty pics are my hand drawn drafts as well as the 20 min explanation (and they still got it wrong 
). Hope mark II is a goer.
but it's a more controlled driving possy, and way more comfo than sitting on your arse throwing ape arms.
