C5 leather seats in a Xantia

Unread post by Stickyfinger »

Well they physically fit, in fact they are perfect by the looks of it.
The inside runner is surprisingly slightly narrower on the C5 seats but a couple of new mounts drilled (welded captive nut) or a small plate and they should fit in quite well.

I am NOT doing this in mine btw, I am storing the seats in this car and Jim said it would be good to check.
I would think this is a great weekend project and those seats !....cuddles, the most comfortable commuting seats ever:)

Ah, right. I would suggest glazing it, but the dirt from the road would very quickly obscure it.
