	I'm absolutely sure this has been covered on this site, but I cant seem to find what I want to know. My seats that are in my car are not original, they are possibly MGB? and are so uncomfortable for me, that it makes it hard to drive much over 30 miles before I'm calling the osteopath, I have a pair of nice recaro type front seats, and want to fit them to my Toledo, I know its been done, and thats not an issue how to do it, what my problem is I have a 2door Toledo, and these seats do not tilt forward, they recline, but no tilt, any thoughts on how to make them tilt, or perhaps slide forward to gain access to the rear, then slide back to their original position?

	tilt and slide subframes needed maybe from another 2 door car to get adapted to your seats

	what car seats use a sliding seat frame that will return to its original position According to the handbook for our Mk7 Fiesta the drivers side seat will do this.Ours is a 5 door so they don't tilt... Brian.
