True Blue Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Hello! Just wondering, does anyone know if Mondeo MK1 or MK2 front seats will fit into a MK6 Escort? If not, is there any way you can make them fit? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScORTED Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 no they won't... yes you can make them fit by cutting and welding subframes around, why you'd want to though is beyond me plenty of decent escort seat options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
True Blue Posted January 2, 2011 Author Share Posted January 2, 2011 (edited) no they won't... yes you can make them fit by cutting and welding subframes around, why you'd want to though is beyond me plenty of decent escort seat options The Escort MK6 seats here are ok, but I think they are a bit simple and there is no height adjustment, take a look:http://images02.olx.com.br/ui/6/66/29/f_39675729-abc9f8de.jpeg The Ghia-X version from UK looks a lot better:http://is00.thegumtree.com/image/big/26620628.jpghttp://is03.thegumtree.com/image/big/26620623.jpg and I found a cheap pair of seats from Mondeo MK1 and they look similar! is there another car that will fit perfect on Escort?

ScORTED Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 with fiesta mk3.5 subframes http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a6/Ford_Fiesta_MK3.jpg the laters mk3 fiesta with the small door mirrors had better seats and had bolt off seat runners that fit the xr3i seats (assuming your floor pan is the same as our late escorts and that fiesta seat in your country are the same) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually re-trimmed them in half leather so they'd be unique but tbh that isnt necessary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawdreamer Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 my own during progress of me retrimming them, the difference in shapes is visable and shows you it can be done in a mk5. http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/25963.jpg http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/25964.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
