  • Front Seat left or right ?

    Which way around do the front Seats go, back angel adjustment wheels/handles in or out ?
    plus how easy is it to swap the wheels/handles from one side to the other on a seat ?
    as the best two seats I've got have the wheels on the same side

    Adjusting wheels should be on the outside of the seat, ie nearest the door in both cases. Don't think it is possible to swap them side to side, as the adjuster mechanism in the seat is meant for only this fitting, as in there is nowhere for the adjuster to wheel to fix to on the "wrong" side.

      Thanks for that Pete,
      looks like I'll have to swap the cover and padding over then

        I have swapped my seats over, don't rember any problems. Obviously the adjusting wheels moves to the inside of the seat.

              I am running a late Maestro 1.3 with a pair of front seats with the seat back adjusters on the inside.

              Just been to check and with the seats fully forward they don't foul the seat belt stalks or the centre console.

              Hope this helps?

                    I've seen them on the 'wrong' side sometimes, doesn't seem to matter and you soon remember which side..
