850 Seats in a Spider?

Post by jimmycakes401 »

Would I need to modify the seats or the Spider to get Fiat 850 seats into my car?

Yes you would need to modify and you would be very unhappy with the 850 seats as the back angle is not adjustable, they have very little support and are very low. The seat tracks are not compatible and are welded to the seat pan of the 850 and the other half is welded to the base of the seat.

They are also quite narrow and have a fixed headrest on most years.
