I don't have my car at the moment to check it out, so wondered if anyone has any experience of this.

I want to move my fixed buckets back so someone else can drive my car. Initially I though no worries, 4xbolts, done. But now in my minds eye, the seat/seat mounts are not quite parallel, but are in fact trunkated/trapezoidal. wider at the front than then back if that's clearer.

This will mean that whilst the centres obviously align in its current configuration, when I index the seat back a few holes, they wont.

Do i remember some lateral adjustment on exhaust tunnel side on the original seat fixing points??

Any comment on adjustment on the original fixing points? I've got 'floating' threaded blocks trapped beneath a slot in my mind?

Well that is obviously what I'm going to do. But I don't share your confidence about the mounts being parallel, hence still being interested to know if there is lateral adjustment on the original fixing points (which I'm still using on the tunnel side)

Normally the holes in the seat mounting brackets themselves are slotted, I've elongated holes in the past to achieve the positioning I've wanted. Just don't go nuts and weaken anything too much.
