Have you looked at the subframe mounts? They are completely different 206s are all floor and 106s are two bolts on the floor and two on the side.

If you want to somehow merge them onto 206 sub frames then yes it could be doable but doubt it would be straight forward at all, especially trying to make them recline.

If you are good at welding and want a challenge then anything is possible but expect it to be a ball ache

Nah it isn't difficult mate as long as you have the material just a lot of measuring and adjustment to get them right obviously do it out of the car then just try and fit them then take them back out to adjust.

Done them with bucket seats before, but it will be a right pain getting them to recline on different subframes

Probably best not unless you have quite a bit of experience with it
