That looks so sick mate, what did you line the floor with?

Thanks! 3 different products actually. In the front I mainly used a high quality winter mat thats designed to be cut-to-fit in your trunk (WeatherTech AVM Universal Cargo Mat). But its pretty big and if you turn them sideways you can join two of them together - like I did. In the front I needed something less thick to deal with all the turns so I just used a no name mat thats pretty thin. Finally in the trunk I actually used a large BBQ mat. It's really thick rubber I just glued it all down. All of this is put onto soundproofing sheets I put everywhere underneath. So ya some real creative work here but it works!

Those seats are beautiful!

Surprisingly yes it is. Really dig the seats they're very comfy and easy to clean. Honestly dont have anything bad to say about them and it been almost a year since I put them in. Cheers

what did you do about the seat belts ? like the clicker thing lol

@SubdivisionAuto

3 жыл бұрын

It was a little complicated not gonna lie. I was unable to undo the huge bolts that held the seat belts in. So I used a grinder to cut it down to size and attatched the new belts to that using really strong bolts. I actually have an episode on that if you check the channel. It was a bit of a shit show not gonna lie. But it worked!

BTW the seat belts dont actually affect the seat, they are just attatched to the frame of the car. If you are just replacing your seats your belts are fine you dont gotta touch them

Planning on doing this in my car, what has been done to the original seat mounts? Is it just a plate?

@SubdivisionAuto

3 жыл бұрын

The seat mounts have a sliding system on it and Its not attatched together so I added a piece of steel int he middle and screwed/welded them together. That steel made room to mount the seat right on top. Its not overly complicated but it was a creative fix for sure. Good luck le tme know hwo it goes

8:30 Well, looks like the honeymoon's over. Women, you can't live with 'em, and you can't live without 'em! I guess that's why I've never been married... I'm unlivable! LOL We love you, Jess!

Seats are awesome, this is about a month from the wedding, so two months ago. I am just backed up in terms of edits on this channel so it takes me forever to release everything lol. Hence all the short travel videos, those are quick and easy

Any updates to long term opinion on these seats? I'm considering seats just like this to replace the wj seats in my 01 xj. How have these seats held up? How's the cushion and feel off road? Do they still feel sturdy? I've got some trepidation about ebay seats safety

Yes and no. It's a bracket that's been cannibalized. We took them apart and modified them to fit bucket seats back in 2005. I then added to them some steel bars because I found them a little ligjt duty. So it's all custom cutting and welding. A huge pain in the ass but it works

@@driverj9954 Ah okay the guy before me had almost no interiror in it so he may have swapped the seats. I know at one point there was nothing in it to do the engine swap the way they did and add all the mechanics to the dash. Sorry I cant be of more help all I can say is the system I have sucks I would make a while new one that slides back and forth smoothly from scratch. Mine is pretty much permanent for my height. Good luck with yours hope it goes well its a pain but worth it! I think your place is solid if I were to do it again id do the same.

At least they're comfortable because they're hideous.

for real i cant believe anyone would spend money on that shit, especially in an XJ.... Just go get some decent leather ZJ seats from a junk yard and it would be more comfortable, look better, and bolt right in without fabrication.

Where did you get the rubber floor?

@SubdivisionAuto

In Canada we have a store thats similar to Auto Zone called Canadian Tire. Most of the flooring is two Weathertech trunk liners and the front is just two generic rubber mats (Had to use a thinner material to do all the curves. And the actual trunk is a BBQ underlay believe it or not. Thus far the materials have worked very well especially with the soundproofing pads underneath.
