After looking for a more supportive seat for a Fortwo I hit a
few problems, for insurance purposes the seats need to be steel backed as they are part of the
smart's crash protection, this rules out nearly all aftermarket seats so something made by
Smart was the obvious choice.
Roadster sport seats are a lovely upgrade as they are much more supportive without loosing any
comfort.
The seats are held in the car
with four Torx bolts (two front, two rear) and the bottom seat belt
mount, undo these and the seats will just lift out.
The seats that I fitted were
removed from a left hand drive Roadster so the cushions and covers
needed to be removed and put onto my original Fortwo seat backs and
runners as the belt holders and adjusters would be on the wrong
side.
If the seats you have were for
the correct hand drive then you just have to swap the runners.
You need to remove the bottom
cushion to access the bolts by un-hooking it from the bottom of the
frame and undoing the Torx bolts to release the runners, your Fortwo
runner will need to be installed on the new seats.
Now all that is left is to
reassemble the seat and bolt it back into the car. (ensuring that
the seat belt is installed correctly)
