XD seat spacers

Recommended Posts

Hi brains trust,

 

can anyone help me with the seat spacer sizes between the rails and seats.

 

I have a set of copy scheel seats to mount onto standard rails but I need to put spacers to clear the mechanism.

 

Are the all the same size or different sizes for each bolt?

 

thanks in advance

i remember them being all the same size, because i've removed them on several cars, or just run them in the front only to tip the seat base back a bit. 

basically the size of a new nolathane sway bar link bush from memory.

Beautiful will look into something like that. Thank you for your help.

 

The car currently has some electric seat from another brand car in it as it got stolen years ago before I got it and the interior was taken so I’m starting from scratch.

 

The aftermarket seats are flat along the sides so I will have to run something to clear the mechanism otherwise I would love to bolt straight to rails to get seat as low as possible. 
 

 Trying to bring it back to original-ish lol

what are you doing for the back seat? do they sell a trim set for it?

A mate of mine also has the copy seats, i think he bought rails from them to suit but not 100%, i'll try remember to ask though.

It has a standard falcon seat in the rear. Light grey colour it’s similar to the part of the copy seats so it will match a bit.

 

I got standard rails I didn’t think about the universal ones they sell.

 

Has black door trims that got done a while ago. I will post up some pics once in get it all cleaned up.

Standard seat rails from any XF will prob fit, Ute, Van, wagon etc. Or you can purchase new from Outlaw Speed or VPW etc. Can buy new repro XA/XB bucket seat rails from GT Ford/Grand Tourer etc.
