Are there any other Renaults which have the same seat mountings as my R/11 Broadway? I am having a lot of difficulty finding seats in a scrap yard or similar place and so if I had a wider choice of cars to look for this would help. what about R/5 or 19s?

Thanks folks

R9 seats will fit, R5 seats should fit.

As far as I know R19 seats are mounted in a different way.

R19 seats won't fit

R19 seats wont fit without modifications. R9/11s have the seat rails very close together (ca. 15 cm) whereas in the R19 the rails are "ordinarily" spaced (ca. 40 cm).

Renault 5 seats ('85 onwards) might fit, provided they use the same "centre rails" as R9/11. You could measure the sideways and lengthways distances of the seat rails mounting bolts from your car, and then compare with the Fives at a scrapyard. And if those dimensions differ, then you can measure the seat frame to rail "carrier" fixing points to see if you can fit a 5 seat to existing 11 rails.

If your 11 is a 3-dr model, then you obviously can't use seats from a 4-/5-dr model, otherwise there's no access to the backseat, due to lack of seat tilt and/or reclining backrest.

I have got in my R9 the front seats from a R19 williams, they are black half leather and look sweet, they are lift up seats to get in to the back seats, so i took the runners off my old r9 seats and had to redrill the hole to make them fit the new seats. i don't know how safe theses seats would be in a crash, but plan to nver find out.
