Anyone have any advice/tips for installing Sparco seats in an R53? I have the manual for the car and will use that for guidance. Any other tips from someone who has done the install? Thanks!

 

It's a pretty easy install. But be sure to research about putting in a resistor for your airbag if you don't want a light on.

 

Not to hard, here's a good step by step to it....

Thanks for the info. I appreciate it!

 

Although not a how-to, I have some notes on my install:

Going to install a new set of Sparco Fighters this weekend and I have a question concerning the passenger seat sensor. I have an '06 MCS and knowing that the seat sensor is part of the airbag system, I'm going to assume that if the sensor is not reconnected I'll get an airbag light? Is this a true statement? has anybody dealt with this at all? can I install a jumper wire and let the system think it's connected thinking that nobody or a child is in the seat and deploy at a reduced rate? Or is there a resistor that can be installed that flags the system to imulate a body in the seat?
