I am looking at putting some fibreglass seats in my Sandrail but require runners. 2 questions:

1. Any preferences?
2. Is just bolting them to the floor safe?

you can bolt them to the floor if you want or too a frame as long as its in the right driving position for you but make sure you spread the load safely as otherwise in an accident they will just pull straight out

drivers needs to be adjustable for an mot if your going road legal.

i have flat lands stainless ones and cant fault em. shinie shinie!

I  thought we had been here before ?

just got this from another forum...

Quotein the rallying community.... Similar questions were asked as regarding racing seats
The vosa line seems to be that if there is a sensible reason why they cannot be adjusted.. I.e. bolted straight to floor in a competition car or kit car this is acceptable,but if sliders are fitted they have to work correctly..
We got a nice letter regarding how the changes would affect the competition car community and it would appear a bit of common sense is being applied ..

From an MOT tester on the same forum

QuoteIf an adjuster is fitted it has to lock in position and do what it is designed to do..... That is pretty much the top and bottom of it, if it aint got one... we cant test it, so it passes, no grey area, there are quite a few new items added Jan 1st and more to come in april, the new testers manual is on Vosa's site.

as previously stated there is no requirement for the seat to be adjustable.

I thought there was, oh well! must have miss read it. 

Always good to have though I guess.
