Your best bet is to swap the runners over so you can still use all your gear. And then your holes will line up and that...

Or try the porsche seats you might be lucky ha..

Thanks lads

Started off by plastic welding plastic from a scrapped bumper into the recess and then applied the thinnest layer of filler possible real ball ache getting the true lines in the bumper but should be painted/fitted by tomoro at the latest detail and pics to follow
