31063, anyone got corbeaus?
Posted by 9D9 MITSU RS, Sep-14-02 05:48 AM
How the hell do you get them to fit in the car? My brackets suck. They don't fit at all on the driver side.

one of my buddys has em in his car, but i know he had to do mad customizing to get them in there, but they are well worth it. if i see him soon Ill ask him about them.

I am modifying them to work. I am using spacers and a longer bolt for the corner that doesn't fit. I found out a wire was in the way. I moved it. now, I just need the spacer.

You know what... after having read ur post in the pits... I think I did have to widen one or two of the holes in the brackets to make them fit....

yeah, if you didn't I don't know what the hell's up with mine. It's like the inner front hole I think on both sides that has to be widened a little to fit. I heard these things were made to fit a 1st gen. I will make them work. These seats will be in my car by tomorrow if all goes as planned.

I woke up this morning, and my dad was like, you ready to get on those brackets? I'm like yeah. HE HAD THEM IN THE CAR! He had went early and extended the holes out. The longer bolt and spacers I had weren't even needed. The corner that was too high went into place. I have the seats in the car now. OMG, I love the feel. Only dislike is that the headrest comes higher and increases blindspots. But, I really like how they sit a little higher up it seems, and that they hold you in place, but still give enough comfort for a street driven car.

do your brackets have the numbers 1096 and 1097 marked on them? just wondering? I Had no problems installing my brackets and MOMO 100 lakes K/C seats.

they don't make them that just said mitsu. I don't want chrysler pads. It's not a chrysler eclipse.

well, without mitsubishi's body, I'd be driving a honda prelude. That was my 2nd choice in a car.
Maybe they'd say powered by chrysler if I was putting them under the hood? I dunno. My car doesn't have chrysler badging. It isn't a chrysler. The motor is, but it's a merger. It's both. It's pretty hard to find pads that just say MITSUBISHI, or whatever. I will probably get some that say ECLIPSE if I find them. Or maybe I'll wait till summer and have some made that say powered by turbo. :)
Powered by $$$ IMO. $$$ sucks my ass 3 times, then moves on to the next unfortunate guy.
