well its 150 from vauxhall so that rules that out. should be off to the scrappy tomorrow to see what i can find.

meanwhile, does anyone know how to remove the arrangement thats in there at the moment and if theres anything important i need to know for refitting.

well there's that sorted then, cost me 30 quid and about an hour or so this afternoon. to think vauxhal wanted 150 plus fitting and i now have a spare seat out of it aswell. excellent/

lol, funny you should mention that. i have toyed with the idea of bolting a base of some sort to it and then ebaying it as a "1 off vauxhall reclining office chair"

On the subject of seat belts, does anyone know if its possible to adjust the spring (assuming it is) that retracts the seat belt. Im feed up with falling over the dame belt every time i get out.

i know this is offtopic now, but to add insult to injury my bloody exhaust gave in this morning aswell. so i had to drive 20 miles home with my car sounding like a bloody sportsbike
