Well done guys, I gave mine a rinse off with some soap suds along with a jet-wash underneath.
Dried it all off then rinsed with 'Demon Shine' I had the stuff given me ages ago so thought best give it a go.
The results were quite good so that's done ...... :whistle:

went to ATS :blush: :S :(

and had my front wheels tracked

B) used an idiot proof wireless system and :woohoo: £30 and well pleased
could feel the difference straight away, the barge like slop has gone and full lock left turns no longer feels like I'm driving a clowns car at the circus :P

was dubious about using ATS but it really is an idiot proof system :whistle:

;)

Looks nice.
How much higher are you sat now?

No higher at all really as the inside runner is exactly the same height and mounts directly to the floor. The outside runner needed building up by about 80mm as the Impreza runners sit level and the Jimny floor drops off to the outside. Also that large lever at the side of the seat raises and lowers it :)

Oops sorry Dalby. Try typing 'Fitting impreza seats' into the search and it's there under the first thread.
