Late seats in early bay?

[georgeyv]

Evening all,

This may have been asked a million times, I seem to have read so much conflicting information my brain is starting to melt.

I've got a pair of late bay seats (two single fronts, both adjustable by plastic handles on the sides and not the windy knob on the front)

Are they interchangeable or do I need to look at other options? I'd rather keep these as they are fresh upholstery! I would consider fitting the late rails but also trying to keep the bus as right as it can be! It's a 71 so imagine it would have the early style runners on the tubs?

Hey man - how did you get on with your seat fitting? I believe T25 runners may fit your late seats. ( I am NO expert)
Please please please let me know if your removing your old runners - I'm after useable early bay 1969 RHD seat runners.
Hope you get your seats fitted soon.

Cheers dude, still weighing up my options. Turns out they are t25 seats so need late bay runners. Going to look at buying a pair of runners, welding them onto plates and bolting them onto the tubs so I can keep the original early bay runners underneath. It may work out easier to take them out totally though so I'll let you know.
