Hyundai i30 Mk3 Bucket Seat Guide
The Hyundai i30 Mk3 (2016-Present) story...
The Hyundai i30 Mk3, launched in 2017, is the third generation of Hyundai’s popular compact hatchback. It offers a clean, modern design with sharp lines, LED lighting, and a refined interior packed with tech like Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and advanced driver aids. Available with a range of efficient petrol and diesel engines, the i30 Mk3 focuses on comfort, practicality, and reliability, making it a solid choice for daily driving and long-distance trips alike.
Once you start using your Hyundai i30 for fast road and track use, you’ll soon realize just how much you need new bucket seats to provide more support.
On cornering, you may find your self holding onto the steering wheel tighter than usual, tensing your thighs and legs against the central console and/or door card. You’ll probably find your weight shifting in the seat and having to re-position your self after the corner.
None of this is correct. Your seat should provide the right level of support so that you can grip the steering wheel only for steering, your legs should be supported and your weight shouldn’t shift around. The recommendations we provide are to ensure that you feel comfortable and supported allowing you to focus on the job at hand.
We’ve worked closely with our customers to create our Hyundai i30 Mk3 guide.
The resulting recommendations are based on previous customer car installations.
Recommended bracket:
We recommend the SW Motorsport vehicle-specific sub-frame to successfully install the bucket seats we suggest in our guide. This frame can be set up with or without side mounts to allow for side-mounted or base-mounted seats to be installed into the Hyundai i30 Mk3. This kit drops directly into the floorplan and bolts into the OEM mount points, meaning no adaptation is required to fit into the car.
Option 1: Side-mounted bucket seat – SW Motorsport frame (full kit with side mounts) – Vehicle
Option 2: Base-mounted bucket seat / Sports recliners – SW Motorsport kit (using the sliding runners without side mounts) – Vehicle
