As far as i am aware the base will bolt straight in but there will be about a 1" gap at the bottom under the side bolsters. The side bolsters i am unsure. The back rest itself i believe (similar to fairlane) will need either a new wagon bracket put into it or easier re bolt the brackets that it attches to. Hope that makes some sense.

You could also ask XRFORD. His build thread may have some more info in it aswell. XRFORDS Build thread. Some good info.

Also, he has put a 5spd and VCT into it as well.


Cheers, Rhys
