Direct bolt in seats

[Jaid0gz]

Hey guys I was just wondering what front seats (driver and passenger) are directly able to be bolted in, With original rails.

If not all Mitsu/Lancers have them direct bolt in, what would some seats that would look good trimmed and feel comfy, but not too race style, as this is just a daily car, with the occasional hill climb etc.

Mitsubishi
EVO 1-2-3-4 (and 5 and 6 IIRC)
CC GSR
CE GSR

Proton
M21/Satria GTI recaros.

obviously the MR and whatnot seats bolt up, they are the same except headrests and stuff.
same goes for CC based protons.

In regards to the proton seats, i was told that there is a tiny 1cm tab on the drivers side that needs to be bent slightly to make it 100% bolt on/in,

Incorrect, they are all the same

Also look in res's ride thread he has some fake recaro style seats with rails that bolt into lancers too they look amazing

thanks guys, alright, these aforementioned seats - are they hard to come buy and/or expensive?

 

[Trondabron]

the recaros from the EVOS or Protons normally go from $500-$1000, in varying conditions.

Res's fakaros went for 449$ plus $200 for rails i think/.

MR seats can go from 80-130~
Evo seats usually 5-600 minimum +
There were some Proton satia gti seats on ebay the other week, started at 100 and sold for 530 or 550.

They pop up from time to time on ebay, occasionally there'll be someone parting out a proton m21 or lancer and not know its worth more lol. Theres often Evo seats on ebay, but they never sell cause theyre expensive. MR and proton seats pop up maybe once every couple months?

Yea that sounds about right tron. For the real recaro's it's all about timing and finding the right ones at the right time I have found a few for the $1000 mark and have seen them before for lower but it's all about timing.

damn, i wouldn't mind recaros but I just wonder if they'd look too out of place with what I plan on doing with my car =\ proton recaros look nice4 though

Donki is correct for CE models. There is a small tab on the driver's side rail that needs bending up for them to sit into place. I'm guessing it's the same for Evo 1-3 and GSR seats as well.
