Kyle2690 0 Posted May 14, 2013 Hi, ive recently took the passenger seat out of 1 of my 205's to replace the drivers seat in my other as its in better con. The problem ive come across tho, is the seat winder... As you know the winder to tilt you forward and backwards is on the right hand side off the passenger seat, where the drivers is on the left. Can anybody tell me how i can take the knob off and swap it to the other side? Would be much appreciated! Cheers peeps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
glenwah 20 Posted May 14, 2013 You cant, I have looked at doing it myself and ended up stripping down 2 seats and making 1 good one out of the two with the drivers frame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 99 Posted May 14, 2013 The bit that the plastic knob clips onto is part of the seat frame and it's all crimped together at the factory, so you can't remove it without destroying the seat. You'd have to either fit the seat as-is and just put up with the knob being on the wrong side (the tilt lever might need bending to clear the knob too), or strip the seat down and swap the cover and foam onto a drivers side frame.

Kyle2690 0 Posted May 14, 2013 Gutted. Never mind tho, just gonna have to strip them down. Cheers guys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
glenwah 20 Posted May 15, 2013 At least if you strip them down you can pick the best bolsters from both and have a near perfect seat, just cut them away from the base and the frame holds them in place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edp 67 3 Cars Posted May 17, 2013 I did this but it wasn't easy. You can remove the plastic part of the winder. I managed to cut the metal part of the winder off and drill, tap and screw the metal part to the spindle. Real faff but worth it as it was a minty passenger seat. God knows if its still attached though sold the car years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
