Scion racing seat....bolted to floor
hey guys i just put a deposit down on a 2005 super white tc and it should be here in a week ....now im not sure where to have posted this ...hopefully u all dont get to ____ered at me...im a big guy 6foot and some chub in the stomach :D now i sat in it and it was a lil tight..headroom was OK what i was wondering was if i put in a racing seat and bolted it to the floor ...would that work? i know this would give me much more room but im worried theres a cross beam on the floor pan where id bolt the seat at ...also going to go with an after market steering wheel and how would i go about getting a hub for it to fit my car ..are their universal hubs? any info would be greatly appreciated -- mike

hmmm, 78 views, three replies. Maybe no one knows because the tC just came out? Maybe you'll be the first one to do it to a tC so you'll have to let use know from your experience? Then again what do I know, I just push a box. [/shrug]

I too am a big guy at 6'3" 230#. I have installed aftermarket seats in one of my BMWs. It's not a real big deal but you need to weld reenforcement plates to the floor or you may pull the seat loose in an accident. Seat belts/air bags don't work if your moving around the cabin in your seat!! Just using large washers is not enough to do it correctly.
