very nice indeed, got any more detailed pics/info on the corrado rear bench?

I've got one to go in mine but haven't decided how to go about it yet….

i didnt get chance to take any pics im afraid

there is quite a bit of work envolved, the frame work needs to be cut on the back of the seat to get the right angle and so the brackets sit down flush to the car…
on the bottom, alot of foam needs to be shaved off, to get the seat to sit flat and flat metal trays had to be made for it to bolt to the car…
then you need to make infills to cover the gap between the seat and side cards as the corrado bench is narrower than the mk1 bench…this was made out of foam with wooden bases …

the best thing to do is, place the corrado bench in the rear of your car and see what needs doing.

theres a guide on matey matey,but its for a mk2 golf..

Just seen this… Really nice. Paint work look great…

Would be really interested in a couple of pics of the lower rear seat bolsters shaved and the flat metal plates you have had fitted and how it all bolts up.

I have fitted the rear uprights no problem but am struggling with the lowers…

Thanks
