Cinquecento or Seicento front seats
« on: June 05, 2012, 06:46:02 PM »
Doos anyone know whether Cinquecento or Seicento front seats fit the 126 perfectly? There is a nice pair of front bucket seats on ebay. If it fits, I am thinking of putting the front seats in my red 126 Bis.

They a bit wide and take alot of mucking-about.

Best I think would be to cut-off the original frame and weld-on the new frame so you can keep the original seat option.

I agree too wide. I remember Darrel's seats. Looked great, comfortable but can't close the door, put on seatbelt before closing.  ;D

another thing to consider is -
those seats will fit a cinq/seicento, but they might be bigger than the factory seats.
E.g. Punto seats may fit a cinquecento, and cinquecento seats may fit a 126, but punto seats won't fit a 126
