youll be fine with the electrics seats bud, just plug in the harness and theyll work
wheres the ££££ing pics! lol

I thought that, due to the key recognition thingy (changes the seat position when a particular key opens the door), the seat needs to be set up via Vida?

The electrics will be there tho so if all else fails, get a sparky to bodge it

[T5RatherAmusin]

all worked bd. memory worked too

[T5RatherAmusin]

what i cant say as i dont have a 2nd key nor 2nd driver, if it does change with the entry, but like said the 123 memories all work...

[T5RatherAmusin]

looks good matey!!

[rikcougar]

Excellent condition, well pleased

Just got to fit them and make them work!

[M-R-P]

Don't forget... Battery off for at least an hour and key in position 2 when reconnecting it

safety first and all that lol

[rikcougar]

Rear seats fitted



Passenger seat fitted



Well pleased and no airbag light hissy fit!

Might have to take passenger seat out again to change centre console

Anybody know how many bolts, screws etc hold console in?

[graemewelch]

Looking much better. I do like the black leather

[M-R-P]

I think it's only 4 well hidden bolts and another two holding it to the dash.

[rikcougar]

Look superb in leather Graeme, proper classy and so much better than the velour things

Just hope that electric drivers seat fits in as easily

I think it's only 4 well hidden bolts and another two holding it to the dash.

Looking at the new console it would appear to be two at the bottom of the storage bit and two into the dash

Cant find any screw holes at the side at all

Is there any way to release the handbrake vertically to make it easier to get out?

[JamesT5]

Sorry, I put this reply on the wrong thread! Lol I PM's Liddo about the one he has for sale.....

[T5RatherAmusin]

undo the foot wel panel with the lil vent in it. screws under rubber mat in storage bit and below cd unit.
undo handbrake gator. lift high from the back adjustin the handbrake to help get the bugger out
couple of leads to unplg underneath

[T5RatherAmusin]

you gonna undo the battery btw? ....i can see lights on in there...

[rikcougar]

Yes, battery neutral cable was disconnected while working on it

Bricking it when I reconnected in case airbag light stayed on!

One thing I thought was strange, what are the wires connecting to the rear seat backs for?

[Jim S70R]

Great progress so far, loving the cossie!! I wonder what a white S60 with that CSl style boot lid would look like....
