MX5 Mk2 Seats - cutting the seat belt mounting


Recommended Posts

Hi, I have two MX5 Mk2 leather seats I'm installing and purchased the conversation mounting  brackets from TR Trader. Their  instruction state to just remove the seat belt anchor, but this leaves a sizeable chunk of redundant metal which to my eye is unsightly. I'm thinking of cutting most of this off to make a more tidy and presentable  job. My question is,  has any one purchased Mk2 seats (MK5 1999-2003) and  removed this unwanted metal without causing any problems to the seat runners?

Regards Phil

Hi I'm in the same position thinking the same thing-did you cut it off and was it OK?

TIA

Thanks chaps cutting now. Noticed they are not the same each side, the seat belt mounting projects out further away from the seat on passenger side.

Thats because in an MX they are a different offset mount side to side.
