yes, but a bit of work, just get some base mounted ones and some subframes or mod the seats to sit on orginal subframes

Mine were fine, they were side mounted too, so didn't need silly frames underneath, just a little bit of metal and some bolts to secure them

you can get adapters that allow side mounts to be bolted to the tailored subframes, costly though as you have to buy subframes, side mounts and adaption bars. go to seats

I bolted mine to the standard Corsa frames with a few bolts and some strips of metal, that way, they still worked properly and didn't sit high.

Tailored mounts are crap IMO.
