Is this for the track only? (driving to and from etc)

No worries -

Most likely mate - yep - I can see me using it for messing about in at home - you know - the short trips to the shops, to the train etc - and for the track - and the beemer for the commute.

Fronts are the same.. and I think Smokey only needs the fronts

I only specifically need the driver top half lol, but you wanted alcantara, thought a deal could be made... I understand that saloon rear should fit a hatch, they are just different?

[Smokey]

Although, alcantara for a track car. Are you crazy lol!

[Dan1971]

It's not gonna be a track car in the same way yours is - and alcantara's just the only interior to have.

Don't understand why you'd want to go from alcantara to mine .... ????

[Smokey]

I'm not....I have other plans

[Smokey]

Talkingcars quoted as saying:

The rears should fit in a saloon if you swap the covers onto the frames in your car, it's not difficult as they are only held in place with clips.

The only real difference between the covers is that the hatch has recepticles to store the seat belt stalks, the only thing on the hatch that is better than the saloon.

[Dan1971]

What do you propose then .... ?

[ZS]

What about the middle seatbelt? Wouldn't that make the back of the rears different? (Saloon is 3 point belt, hatch is lap belt)

[Smokey]

That would be a question for someone in the know, apart from the above and the plastic clip that holds the middle belt, I cant think what else would be different?

And if rears work for hatch dan, I was thinking discount if supplied with cover I need lol dependent on condition of current driver seat of course.
