05 seats in a fox?

[aete2]

Hey there, has anyone put 05 seats into a fox? If so how? I got a set and would like some info on what to do to put them in!

thanks!

anyone?

they won't directly bolt up. you'll either need to take the brackets off your existing seats and attach them to the 05 seats, or fab up some custom brackets

thanks again guys.

I sold a set of them to a customer of mine. He told me it took him a while to think of a way to mount them up. It took him even longer to actually do it. The base of the 05 seats is way different then 79-04 seats. You will need to do some serious fabrication. Those seats are not that cool looking anyways, I would put a set of 01 Cobra or 03-04 Cobra seats in a FOX. They bolt right up and are better looking IMO.

sounds like its too new of an idea, but im sure you'd find someone if this thread stayed bumped for bout a month lol....i agree the 99-04 (especially 03-04 cobra) seats would look real nice.


now i bet someone will post with experience now that i've said that lol

Well the passenger one is in, not a fun job!! the driver one i'm worried about its all power and i cant just switch the tracts like the passenger one so ill have do some thinking on this. I'll get pics soon.

bump :SNSign:

ok there in, i will post pics soon. I would not do this again, not a fun job many hours of fabing to get them to work. They look good though

Check out the new recaro magnifica, they look just like the 05's and bolt into the fox i beleive. They were in the speed lust section in sept 06 5.0 mustang
