  1. Hi all, So I can confirm aftermarket seats, without cutting frames or welding mounts to car, are completely possible. If you have read my before method with the universal frames this way is a lot easier and more cost effective. After 3 months of research I found a company called Planted Technology, they produced made to order seat sub frames for many cars. I emailed them to ensure my car was not an EK or an EG. I measured up the cars holes and got back the details of the closest fit frames they make. The Honda Accord 4th & 5th gen have the same interior as the MB3/MB6. I took a risk bought the frames and they do in fact directly fit. I admit it was a bit of a fiddle as they had to come from America so may have been slightly warped or bent on delivery, never the less I got them in as seen in the image below Here is a link to the main page, it would better off ordering them from GSM performance Planted Technology https://www.plantedtechnology.com/products/planted-seat-bracket-honda-accord-4th-5th-generation-1989-1997-passenger-right GSM performance https://www.sportseats4u.co.uk/product/planted-honda-accord-bracket/ Things to consider, these frames do not come with threads. M12 Nuts will be needed to fit seatbelts, M8 Nuts and bolts to fit seats to rails or frames, washers highly recommended

  3. Meant to update this! Got the ABS fault sorted, was right rear abs sensor. Was supposed to be a 10 min job to remove/fit, only one 10mm bolt! Said bolt was rounded to he'll, so took time to get that out. Then the sensor itself wouldn't come out! In the end had to remove brake caliper, caliper carrier and brake disk so I could hammer the sensor out! What a faff. New one fitted, all back together and abs light now gone!😀 Also had her in for her MOT which she failed. Didn't fail on much tbh, handbrake efficiency, broken o/s/f coil spring. Couple of advisories for o/s/f ARB drop link and a tyre slightly perishing. Got everything done except the tyre as I'm gonna replace all 4 soon anyways so she now has a clean bill of health. Still driving nice, and love her to bits!

  4. Cheers mate, loving it to be honest.. It's dead comfy for munching miles, if not quick. Totally the opposite to the deck.. Sat up tall, soft air springs, and lazy drive, instead of low down, stiff and engaging. Got the best of both worlds now 😂

  5. Some guy came over when I was cleaning it, and asked if he could take some photos and put them on socials. He was saying "you hardly see these anymore... I've just came in pretty much and I've already seen like 5 supras" 😂

  7. Quick pic of the mini honda meet at ours now. Karen's civic, Steppy McStepwagon, and Tubs2 (aka Shelly) Still waiting for the bumper for the wagon.. Got one sent eventually, but they sent the wrong one, so waiting for it to be collected and swapped. Other than that it's mot ready.

  8. That's a result. Like you say, abs sensors are a mare on the M. Glad you're still liking the type s mate.
