C8 seats interchangability

Unread post by Drivelafrance »

Hi all,

I've recently picked up a C8 HDi and am very pleased with it, really comfy cruiser.

At present I only have 5 seats (2 outers for second row and 1 in the rear). There are plenty kicking around on eBay but my question here was whether anyone knew whether seats from later cars might fit in their place?

Seats out of something like a 5008 might be a lot lighter and fold down to be much more compact when not in use.

Cheers

I'm not sure on interchangeable with 5008, but the 2nd row centre seat is unique as it has its own seat belt built in, nothing else will fit there. As for the back, any seat will fit there apart from the centre 2nd row seat. You can also get a bench seat for the back row so it becomes an 8 seater. As for 5008 fitting it I'd doubt it. Pug 807, Fiat Uylesse and Lancia Phaedra would fit as it's all the same vehicle just different badge. Also do you have the Captain Chairs version which means it's only a 6 seater? That means leather seats with double armrests.

Yes I ask the stupid questions, because normally it is that simple.

Thanks for the quick reply. I have the standard 7 seat layout. I've managed to source the middle seat with belt but it's the back seats where I was looking to try and fit something smaller so that I retain more boot space in 7 seat mode. I'll take a trip down to a few scrappies and update if I find out anything useful
