Want to change the (now collapsed) fronts on my van. Any after-market seats will do(must have up-down adjust and bolt on to existing floor-pan mounts and be based around Recarro style..ish). Its a minefield out there so any advice on options appreciated.
Ooo.. and can I put slightly wider tyres on my standard 14" steels(bit better grip around corners and squatter stance).
Ta for help..

Why not fit a set of 15inch alloys. I fitted a Peugeot 307 alloys on our M49. I had to reduce from the 307 tyre width to 175/65/15, buy a set of longer wheel bolts off ebay and fit 5mm spacers on the rears to get the clearance. They've been on years with no problem. Just easy to damage on kerb as tyres don't protect wheel edge being slightly narrower. Sorry can't help with seats M49 and M59 have different seat runner mountings
