Do any of you have adjustable runners on your seats? What ones do you use? I want the ones that lock on both runners but dont know what make to go for, it will make no difference to the seats that Im using.

I use the ones that came with my Lotus seats. The double lockers work well if you can keep them square or they tend to lock one side and not the other...
I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

Does the seat need to be adjustable now for the mot? I've never had an issue with fixed seats in the past.

Never heard of that one, or ever seen my seats being tested? Surely if the seats set for the only person who ever drives it whats the issue? On 24th Oct, 2015 jonny f said:

I don't think they checked mine last week when it went for an MOT. The seat runners I have from minispares aren't very smooth, I've caught my fingers a few times moving them :( They don't die, they just get faster! |

I read somewhere recently that if a seat is designed to move, it should. Obviously if a seat is designed not to move, it can't and as long as its bolted down safely I don't see the problem in it. I think its a blurry line tbh.

My tester said he would apply common sense when I asked about my car.

Our local tester said that as long as the seats didn't have integrated runners as standard he wouldn't fail it for not moving. |
