Hey all, recently took my car in for a roadworthy and failed due to quite a bit of seat wobble, does anyone know of a solid solution. the wobble come from the backrest of the seat and i can’t seem to find the right bolt to tighten it up.

Find a seat thats not rooted. Easier said than done nowdays. A lot of old cars fail roadworthy for that reason.

alright fair enough, do you know if VT seats will fit the Vn rails or should i go aftermarket seats?

Must be some way to repair seats with wobble play.

It's something that a solutmust be found for given originality is important and good SH seats will increasingly be hard to find.

Not wrong but most likely is like a complete frame rebuild with some new metal arms... same as the VG VQ VN VP VR VS bonnet hinges, theyre not really something you can repair either.
