The-Plethora Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 My forward / back seat motor died last weekend and its a bit of a pain to drive in the fully back position! Therefore I am ideally looking for a NON electric drivers side cloth seat so it doesnt happen again if possible but will look at another electric one if its not too old. The closer to Bristol the better as I will likely have to pick them up Cheers, let me know what you've got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LolaBoost94 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 There are two motors to move the seat forward and back mate. My seat would move on the right side but not on the left. If it doesn't move at all then both must be shot. I can get you the right side if just your right is out. Cheers. Arin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-Plethora Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 Ah ok, I thought it had one front to back motor and the other side just slid on the rail being pulled along. I will check when the weather calms down a bit and let you know, thanks. In the meantime I am still on the lookout for (ideally) non electric cloth front seat(s) if anyone has anything around before I have to fit blocks of wood to my pedals to drive the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you stick your head in the driver foot well and look back at the seat, their pretty easy to spot. Spinning them clockwise/counter clockwise will determine if they move forward or backward. Out of curiosity, did you move the seat all the way back just before the motors stopped working? Because that's what happened to me. I suspect the motor may not be broken, just not able to turn for whatever reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
