use the escort sub frames,u have to make some brakets to widen it a bit as the cossie seats are wider,backs will need some brakets made up,rear bench needs re trimming to fit neat on the original rear bench

Best bet is using Granada rear seats, the cosworth items require a rear parcel shelf support that only the orion or saff has. If you use the back seats from a Granada the bracket setup is similar and easy to mod to fit. The base of the seat needs to be taken apart and put on to the base of an ERST item.

As said Jano's RWD S2 has a cossie floor pan so fits the std cosworth seats as it was designed to.

Hope that helps.

There is no more info lol.

Only other way would be to weld in some sort of brace from one side of the rear quarter to the other and trying to fit the same sort of catches that a Saff would use. But the clamp point is about 3 inch higher than the rear parcel shelf so you would have to re-design the boot area for it to look good enough not to notice some massive bar welded in the rear.

Just use Granada cos rear seats. Same as what i had in my first RST.
