hey guys, i got some seats sitting around i want to chuck in my NB, i have searched the forum and found that the passenger side needs to be modified to fit, is this the same with the NB? also are the rails the same?
thanks

The left and right rails are different.
NA seat (and rails) will fit into an NB and NB seats (and rails) will fit into an NA.

Be prepared to put seats in and out lots of times- it takes some real juggling depending on the brand of seat. I spent 6 hours fitting the Cobras - lots of juggling to get them in exactly the right spot. Conversely the OBX seat on drivers side took about 30 mins... It's not easy to measure as the car floor is not flat - the best way (wish I'd thought of this first
) is to remove the rails from the seats, then boltthem back into the car, then measure the mounting holes. Drop the seats onto the rails and see if you nee to move them back, forward or sideways for clearance, and don't forget to allow for the seat belt mechanism on the NB seats. Remember they need to slide forward and back so you need clearance on door trim and tunnel too. Enjoy!
