Will Omega seats fit in Omega
« on: 02 February 2007, 18:37:52 »
No, I'm not replacing mine.

JamesV6CDX needs some seats picked up from Nottingham, Tunnie was going to do it, but as I'm going up anyway tomorrow....

Question is, do we just take my car, or do we take Tunnie's Senator as well to be sure?

I think its all the seats and the door cards...

Almost certainly yes, although I've never tried it with two people in the car as that means you lose use of the front seat. Howver with the Omega's big boot it should be fine.

Basically both front seats can sit lying across the back seat, then the bench can either go on top or lying across the floor in the back. Rear seat back rests will fit in the boot, leaving only door cards. You might squeeze two in the back and the other two in the boot, or maybe even get them all in the boot. Really easy if the front passenger seat is free though. I had a complete interior for a Mondeo saloon in an Audi A4 once, and that had a dual-fuel setup taking up half the boot space.

If you don't mind picking the seats up Jaime, I could take them to James?

If you going up to Nottingham anyway, makes sense if you pick them up, and I can take them onto James...

OK, someone send me some details...  ...unless you fancy 'assisting' with my springs anyway, I think all the bolts are shear proof ;D

I only managed to get two wheels with tyres in my boot, there may not be as much room under the parcel shelf as you think....

Not a chance of getting the seats in one car unless you strip out the rear and passenger seats first.

Tunnie, you should come up too (I want to see/try this Senny). :)

Until you actually see a seat out of the car, you don't realise how big they are.

Until you actually see a seat out of the car, you don't realise how big they are.

I've transported full interiors from 4 different cars, all in cars either the same size as or smaller than the car the interior came from. Some of them included things like the centre console and dash trim in addition to the seats and door cards. I'd be very surprised if you can't fit em in with a bit of planning. Doing things like removing the headrests and playing around with the backrest angle on the front seats helps a lot (although the latter may be a problem with electric seats).

As I said before taking a passenger may cause a problem as you're losing a fair bit of space in the front seat, but other than that I'm sure it can be done.
