4 bolts hold each front seat in.
If the bolts are all tightened correctly the seats will be fine just as if they had been factory fitted.
I know it's a job so simple a monkey could do it. It's just the way my mind works if you get me. With everything I constantly think what if? Bit annoying at times can put me off doing something I really want to. :/
Borrow a torque wrench if your that worried
99% of people find FT is good enough on seat bolts.

XS is a lower spec.
Thirsty 8 valve 1.6 engine.
Most XS have rear drum brakes with NO abs.

So I geuss its the same lump as the Saxo VTR then?
Never looked at the XS if im honest. Just the XSI is about £100 more on the insurance for the year than my 1.4 LX so cant complain too much haha

Yep from a 1.4 8v
XS was an extra £17.50
XSI was an extra £551 :l
#41: Re: Am I blind? Author: LeeThr, Location: North West WalesPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 12:47 pm ---- Just looked in your profile and realised you have an XS. Is it really that bad?
#42: Re: Am I blind? Author: Jay794, Location: Sheffield/Chesterfield/DronfieldPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 12:51 pm ---- My DTurbo had phase 2 washer jets but phase 1 everything else when I got it
#43: Re: Am I blind? Author: Howey, Location: Kings LynnPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 12:53 pm ---- Yes its awful. Thirsty, stupidly expensive to tax and the slowest of all the TU5 engines. w**k.

Jesus that aint good. Was looking at insurance on my 1.4 the other day as mines due in about 6 weeks times just to get an idea. Came up about £1380 I think it was. Put in the reg for an XSI and it came up at £1450. Considering there 7 insurance groups apart seems quite reasonable.

Sounds familiar to how my 1.4 is. Pile of crap haha. Anybody here got any scare stories with the XSI? What kind of MPG am i looking at? What about tax?
