    Default VT Rear Seats

    Just a suggestion, If anyone would like to fit VT rear seats, I'd highly suggest it over the ****ful VN Seats..

    Cheers

    why cant ya use the armrest? doesnt the hook line up or somethin? i always use mine, its always folded down cause the subs go louder that way
    Or do you mean the little armrest that folds out without having to fold the whole seat down?

    LOL, so you seriously think having the middle seat folded down allowing the bass to flow into that car doesnt make it as loud? you obviously have no clue

    it may appear louder, but the sub itself isnt changing in volume

    Dave yep, I used the cutting guides we talked about mate. I put the vn seat base onto the vt with all original metal rings etc... and i cut both sides of the vn seat base so it didnt overhang the vt seat base.. apart from that base = easy as piss... & the top I used the exact cutting technique we talked about dave... worked a charm.

    Cheers

    The sub isnt changing volume, but it is louder to the ear inside the car
    Anyways how hard was this to do? does the middle seat still clip up and fold down?

    its actually just releasing the pressure created by the speaker into the cabin... who cares :P hozy im sorry but calais have the uber head rests, exec spec dont :P

    also the exec seats are a harder foam rather than a padded one, all up nice conversion but it'd be nicer if they were VT calais seats

    airstrike: leather = crap :P soo not nice to ride in IMO
