I received the parcel from seremotors today and as I was free from work I decided to do this mod btw I rate this job (hard) for people who have big hands I found a tool small enough to get to the screws there are 4 in total, 2 on the sides and 2 side by side near the front. I didn't do a perfect job because am not very good at DIY but it works and shuts tidy as it does with the passenger’s side when you fit the new storage there should be 6 screws that came with the parcel (I did not needed them) I only used 3 screws because I was struggling to get the screws in to every hole I did the left side and the right side and finally where the 2 screw holes are I only used one because you need to drill holes to fit the screws in (the storage do not have the holes predrilled you need to do this yourself).

Its defin worth it for the extra storage and the one I fitted don’t rattle and it is solid to the seat no movement whatsoever despite only using 3 screws lol You guys will understand what I mean when you do the mod yourself
Tip, move your seat back and lower it extra because you don’t get much space at all

for the people who have bluetooth under there seats you may want to look at this ?

listed on etka as same part but im not 100% sure if it depends on lhd or rhd

yes they do from shape of the unit its more or less the same for left and right but you need to drill the holes on for the side you want it although when i checked the passenger side it looked like the holes were already there but mine wasn't which was a bit odd but yea the hardest part is lining it up with the seat i did 3 holes and the 3rd one was a sucess if its too tight the box won't close properly

So it should fit the passenger seat on a Cupra then??? Theres nothing under that.

edit - Would the owners manual etc fit in it??!?!??!?

Unit arrived from Seremotors today and is a quality product. Takes about half an hour to fit but obviously a lot quicker when you know what you are doing but nevertheless its easy enough.
Tips for novices, make sure you've got a small but powerful torch and adjust the seat to its optimum heght. All the holes are already there although the plate that you remove only uses 2 of them.

Owners manual fits it but needs to be rolled slightly ie it wont lay flat.

 

[cheungy]

err hope this helps too?

(I made holes on mine so it joins with other end of the seat but you don't have too if you don't want them but i only copied from the passenger side) Hope I did not confuse anyone just want you to understand what I did.

Thanks.

Ok so I had the underseat boxes fitted. Took it too a buddy who removed the seats and that makes it much easier. Passenger side straight forward, drivers side complicatred by bluetooth module.

Passenger seat before removal

Box fitted on bench

Plastic bracket on seat scored and box clipped into it, feels really solid and wont be moving anywhere. no screws used in front.

plastic bracket where seat wires for seatbelt and airbags removed. Bluetooth module moved into this area and sponge placed on top to cushion it. helod tighlty in place.
