MX5 Mk2 seat bracket fitting problems


Recommended Posts

I tried  to fit MX5 conversion brackets from TRTrader and found they cannot be mounted directly on the floor as the chassis mounting plates hinder this. Clive at TRTrader suggested most people mount them on the carpets using spacers or change the chassis mounting  plate for body washers.

Has any one who has used these brackets come across this problem, if so, what mounting solution did you use?

Thanks Phil

Yes, had exactly the same problem, although didn't get the brackets from TR Trader.

Not sure if we have done right or wrong but just put some packing between the bracket and floor pan and carpet on top.

Although not on the road yet (ongoing major rebuild) seats seem fine.

Had to elongate the fixing holes slightly to enable the seat to slot on to the bolts easily.
