Can you put four bucket seats in a 3dr corsa B!
Front would be recliners.. rears rigid!
I no the front is quite straight forward.. but wat sort of work would be needed on the rear?

To do it properly you have to cut the floor pan up, otherwise the seats will sit too high.

I made a sud frame going round the perimeter of the rear bench. Each end of the frame held one side of the each seats. Then welded 2 inner vertical bars to the hold othe side of the seats. The seats were bolted onto the frame and so was the frame onto the bench. You need to lower the petrol tank or remove.
I used Corbeau Clubmans and there ok.
MOT shouldnt be a problem cus you can still use the OEM seat belts.

depends wether you're rallying or not i suppose. i've got the 1 monaco bucket in the back bolted down on a frame through the seat belt mounts. just touches the headlining but is far back enough for plenty of leg rom.
