Looking to fit these seats in my mini has anyone else got these, if so could you put up some pics and measurement of the front seat brackets that you had to make to get seats in and do the back seats fit straight in or are there any mods to do on them

pretty sure the backs fit straight in.
theres a thread about what seats fit in the mini and someone said puma seats do and the backs go straight in

You'll have to get some steel and make custom subbies, or adapt some others

I made my own seat mounts. I used a couple of seat runners out of a corsa and flipped them upside down. I welded two bars between them to space them so they could be bolted to a mini's standard mounts. That just happened to coincied with the distance that they needed to be apart to bolt my cobra bucket seats to. I added the U shape piece underneath to hold the back end up at the correct height and transfered the catch mechanism from a standard mini seat to it.
Have a look at my build diary for ideas.
