Sorry to bump an old thread. There seems to be a lot of threads on this topic which link back to this one.

Does anyone have access to the original images? I've just picked myself up a set of Ignis Recaros (I assume £80 sets are a far gone luxury :D), wanting to get them into my truck but really could use the pictures to aid me fitting them in.

Also out of curiosity when you transplant the Ignis seats onto the Jimny rails does it maintain the seat base adjustment wheel?

Currently lying on the floor about to throw in the towel. Whoever said this frankenseat was easy evidently hasn't had the problems I have, been at it 5 hours, got the passenger seat ALMOST together.

One of the back bolts has crossthreaded, I refuse to take this bolt out now as I know it won't go in again. 3 of the 4 base bolts have lined up, don't have the strength to bend the frame enough for the last one, nevermind pop the bolt in at the same time.

I would strongly recommend you secure an extra pair of hands before attempting trying to force everything into shape and bolt it together is a nightmare on your own, in fact it might have ruined one of my seat backs as I attempted to run the bolt in squint.
