Nooooo seat didnt move, into main dealer, thought £40 or £50, new spring or whatever.

£942 for a new seat, didnt do separate adjuster, got it welded up...................
And welding is the issue - it has to be able to move or it will fail..... mine isn't welded - just broken. Your daughters will now fail though ....

Your welcome to the Drivers seat in this saloon if that helps? the bolster is a bit fekked... but mechanically it all works fine

Either swap over the covers... or just take the bits you need from this seat?

BTW, did the fog light arrive?

Hers was the seat height not the for/back part, so will be okay.

Alcantara interior £100.
Bulb - £4.99 (ish)

Having it legal and thrashing it about the lanes - Priceless !
