Bugger I wish i knew about this before i threw the set i had in a skip a few weeks ago...... :cry:

Anyway i can confirm that the subframes that bolt the seat to the car chassis are totally different than 5's but after you take all of that lot off the bottom of the seats you're left with a flat subframe you can retro fit the 5 Subframes onto & then job's a goodun!! :D

Retrofit
1.to modify equipment (in airplanes, automobiles, a factory, etc.) that is already in service using parts developed or made available after the time of original manufacture.

i got a mint set of phase 2 valver pues for 50 squids earlier and as big steve said they are well'a different :( i don't wanna hack my subframes up to fit them, and the clio ones are too wide to fit.
does anyone fancy helping me out? :D
