TRD Sports Seat - Making Copies of the Installation Brackets

Thanks Dan!!!

Feel as forum has really achieved one its main goals by making a non existant/rare part available :-)

Just a quickie.

I have (2) sets being cut now plus one set blank that somebody is going to adapt for their own runner. (so that's another for you Jeff and one set for you Andy)



Can you confirm this is the outside bracket Jeff? It's difficult to tell from the other pics except this one which appears to show the other bracket mounted next to the centre tunnel.



do i have this right?

Thanks

One in pic above is next to transmission tunnel - that white stud just behind it is the bolt where the original slider for seat belt goes on. Is this what you mean? (sorry for being daft but not sure I understand the question right)

Just to add - that's the transmission tunnel side bracket on the passenger side.

I don't think it's you being daft - i think it's me.!!!! So am i right in saying the two pics above are the same bracket just opposite hand to eachother?

Thanks

I'm not sure TBH!!!

Have a look at the actual installation pics I did here:

If it helps - on the rears the bolts/open side of the bracket is always on the inside of the seat.

Brackets are in and should be able to fold them sometime after Tuesday

yay!!! :-)

Where did you get to with this Jeff? Did the brackets fit?

They sure did - here theyre are in my other 2 for the time being so they dont get dusty :-)

Have another 2 sets at work.

Just need to weld them. I have a welder at home now so should have them done next week

Id tell you to "chop, chop" but I suppose what I really mean is "weld,weld"! (just kidding) LOL

Kool beans. I'm due back middle May (ish). Is it OK to come round Dan and pick them up? PM me with either your price and/or favourite liquor ;-)

That'll be fine mate. there's a lovely route over.

A20 from the port early services roundabout
through the tunnels
get straight off after the tunnels and take the alkham valley road
up to whitfield and then a quick run along the a256 to Sandwich

Happy days

Should have mine pretty much rebuilt by then

Hi Guys ,

Great site . I need your help . I have just bought the TRD racing seats and need to know if the bracket you have made would fit a my Toyota GT

Cheers

Hi there - these brackets are to fit an MR2 only. TRD did diffferent sets of brackets so the seats could be fitted to different cars - you going to need the bracket set for your car.

I wish I had these seats back in February! I recently bought a pair of TRD seats, but I need the brackets, too! Is there anyone that knows how to make this or have a way to get in contact with the OP?

Much appreciated.

I'm the OP! LOL

Go back to beginning of thread and all the measurements are on there but it was actually d-peg who made mine for me - try PMing him :-)

Doh! I saw the measurements for it, and will see if anyone is willing to fabricate them, but I didn't catch seeing at what angle they need to be bended! Tried sending D-Peg a message, but to no avail yet. Maybe I'm just being impatient because I sent it only a couple days ago.

He would be more active on mr2oc.co.uk might be worth giving him a shout there.

anyone got D-Peg's email ??

Trying to get a set of the brackets for a customer of mine if possible

I don't have his email but you'd be better contacting him on mr2oc.co.uk or twobrutal as he's always on those forums.

I've PM'd him on MR2OC for you :-)

Hi db8.

Yep i can do you a set of brackets, will be after xmas now - as we've only 3 and a bit days till closing. Not to mention I'm probably gonna be too smashed out of my brain to even remember .... well ... that's the plan anyway!

Drop me a pm on here/mr2oc and we can sort something out for you for sure.

(this'll be set #5 i think )

If its easier to run off set #6 at the same time let me know how much! :-)

BTW I've made this thead a sticky as I reckon its a lifesaver for folk whove bought the seats and dont have brackets. Pat on the back for Dan :-)
