Looking for a little help here, I recently grabbed a set of Elite leather seats for my father in law to fit into his ecoflex, managed to install them ok but the up/down forward/back function does not work on them.
Looking into it I understand that the seat needs an extra wiring loom installed in order to make these functions work which can be expensive from what I have read!
Now my father in law is not actually bothered about the electrics working as long as he can get the seat in the right position for him to drive and we can get the bolts in the back to secure it down!
So my question is: does anyone know of any other way the seat can be adjusted? Can the seat runners just be swapped over? How difficult would it be to swap the seat squab and rear part over?
It doesn't even need to go forward that far for us to get the bolts in or for him to be in the right position that's the annoying part!! I thought about swapping the runners over but it looks like the bolts are secured in, hoping someone might be able to advise more on this option as it seems the most logical and ideal solution.
Any idea's or suggestion would be greatly appreciated, if we can't work anything out then I may well be lumbered with the seats as they were sold on sale no return basis as they were cheap and I don't really want to replace my SRI one's as they are really comfortable.
Thanks in advance, praying that a solution can be found
