Almost complete...
Lots of little odd jobs to do, including taping the seat spacers in place.

For some, the penny washer was nicely stuck to the Tetroseal on the floor.



For others, the washer also needed to be stuck into position too.



The seat belts need to be fitted before the seats can go in.

So I added a layer of tape on the inside surface of the fixing plates.
( In a vain attempt to reduce some of the rattles in the car. )



Unfortunately, the grey shows up some of the stains the belts have picked up over the years.



So I spent a little while giving them a scrub, but it made very little difference.



Driver's side in.



For the record:
Fitting these seats the first time around was almost the straw that broke me on this build.
( Back in August 2016, that first seat took 4.5 hours to do! )

The main problem is that I can't see where the bolts are going into the base of the seat when I am underneath the car.

So today's approach involved some 'sticks'.



Which then poked out of the floor.



I then applied copper ease to the bolts.



End of Part 1…
