How hard is it to change seat rails over?

[seanssf]

Hi, i picked up a set of celica leathers and just wondering if its possible to swap the seat rails from my EK facelift VTi seats to the celica ones?

They are pretty much the exact same dimesions, so just curious if possible

four bolts holding the rails to the car and depending on the seat 4 bolts either on the bottom or the sides of the seats. If you cant change set rails over i'd be worried about you!

its a piece of piss mate, the hardest thing is getting the seats lifted out to change over the rails as they weight a bloody tonne! lol

Yeh i realised once i took the seats out, thats me going to tackle them now

The rails are completly different, the only way doing this is with a welder..cut the brackets off and weld them in place on the celica runners

apologies mate, i didnt read your first post properly. I though you where just changing the rails on the existing seats to lowered ones. If your trying to put celica seats in then yea you'd probably need custom fabricated rails made to fit the ek chassis.
