Dear all,

As a point of interest, can anybody recommend alternative front seat options?

I am just curious as to what after market or existing front seat models fit.

This is with a view of putting something in that may prove more comfortable for summer touring.

At present I am fine with the existing front seats as I like the originality but am nevertheless curious as to options...

i.e what do the raid guys do for seats?

Regards

I have visa front seats in the pick up.
you could use BX seats I think, also im sure AX seats would fit.

BX seats fit well - and it's simple to make up adapter boxes that use the BX runners.

But - and this is going to apply to Visa, too - they're going to be a bugger to find.

More modern Citroen seats that I've seen are tricky, as the bases are a bit more complex. Strikes me that your best bet is to have a wander around a scrappy - with a tape measure, since the width is important.

C15 seats?

If you are tall and fitting firmer seats, you wont see out of the windscreen The original seats where your ass in hanging near the floor is perfect. No need for other seats

BX seats are full of win & easy to mount nice & low:

I've got BX in my '88 2CV .....they are slightly higher than standard,but I soon got used to them.
It just comes as a "second nature" now to me to make sure that if I'm first in a queue of traffic at any lights that I leave room to see the lights.
I cut down the standard seat runners,and bolted two sections of one inch box section to them,and then bolted the BX seats to the box section.
After years of driving 2CV's & Dyanes .....my advancing years meant that my standard seats were the wrong position for me,and a long drive would leave me with an aching right knee joint ......I've had no such problems since I fitted the BX seats.
Although they do reduce legroom somewhat for rear passengers [which is of little importance these days,as I very rarely carry any rear passengers].

Depends on how you fit 'em. In the Acad, the BX runners bolted to 25mm square tube which was bolted to the floor (through the normal 2cv holes). They were slightly lower than normal 2cv seats.

Seems odd to me that everybody suggests stuff from the Citroën range, the only thing I can think that'll fit directly in are ami8 seats, which are pretty comfy. I'd be heading down the breakers yard and seeing what's likely to fit. I leather seats out of a jaguar in my 2cv a few years ago, anything you find will require an element of fabrication to fit, unless you go for ami8 seats.
