Peugeot 306 bucket seat guide
1993 to 2002
The 306 GTI-6, 1996 to 2001, is one of the most respected hot hatches of its era and remains active in UK track day and club competition circles. Sparco and OMP both offer direct-fit subframes for the 306, and the roll cage range covers everything from a bolt-in option through to the GTI-6-specific S16 weld-in kit.
- The Sparco and OMP subframes are both confirmed for the 306
- Cages listed here are genuinely 306-specific; a similarly named Peugeot 206 cage is a different, unrelated car
- The competition bucket range runs from the Cobra Monaco Pro through to the Sparco Evo QRT
- Reclining sport seats keep more factory comfort while still improving on the standard seat
- Harnesses above 3-point need a roll cage or a properly engineered harness bar
Mounting
The Sparco Direct Fit Sub-frame at £75.50 and the OMP Direct Fit Subframe at £83.37 are both confirmed for the 306.
The Sparco FIA Steel Side Mount Brackets at £75, the Sparco Seat Sliding Runner Kit at £34.95, and the Endurance Motorsport Sliding Runner Kit at £34 give further fixing options.

Competition seats for the 306Which bucket seat for a Peugeot 306
The Cobra Monaco Pro FIA at £235 is the practical starting point for a track day car. If you want a lighter fibreglass shell, the OMP Champ-R at £318 is well judged for the money. For a 306 built properly for competition, the Corbeau Pro Series X System 1 at £625 gives the strongest support here.
Reclining sport seats
The Sparco R100 at £235 and the Auto Style Type RS6-II Vinyl at £278 are the two options for the 306.

Roll cages
Watch for the Peugeot 206Some listings look similar to the 306 by name but are actually built for the Peugeot 206, a different, unrelated car. Every cage in this guide is confirmed specifically for the 306.
The OMP Bolt In Roll Cage at £690 is the accessible option. The OMP Weld In Roll Cage at £723.37 and Sparco 6 Point Bolt In at £744.52 sit a step up. The OMP Multi-Point Weld In at £1437.91 and the GTI-6-specific Sparco S16 Multipoint Weld In at £1132.95 are the top of the range for a 306 built properly for competition.

Roll cage tier for the 306Which roll cage for a Peugeot 306
The OMP Bolt In Roll Cage at £690 is the accessible option for a track day car. If you have the GTI-6, the Sparco S16 Multipoint Weld In at £1132.95 is built specifically for that shell. For a 306 built properly for competition, the OMP Multi-Point Weld In at £1437.91 is the top of the range here.
Harnesses
Harnesses need a roll cage or harness barA 4-point, 5-point or 6-point harness with separate shoulder straps needs proper attachment points above and behind the seat. Fit a roll cage or a properly engineered harness bar before using anything above a 3-point belt.
The TRS Clubman 3-point bolt-in at £80 and 4-point clip-in at £100 both use the standard seat belt anchor points and do not need a cage. For 4-point competition use, the TRS Magnum 4-point FIA at £205 and the Takata Drift II at £229 are the step up.
For 6-point harnesses, the cage goes in first. The TRS Magnum 6-point Superlite FIA at £245, the Takata Drift III at £270, and the Schroth Profi 3×2 at £370.01 all suit a caged 306 going to competition or serious track days.

Common questions
Will a Peugeot 206 roll cage fit my 306?
No. The 206 and 306 are unrelated cars and need different cages entirely. Every cage listed here is confirmed for the 306 specifically.
Is there a cage built for the GTI-6?
Yes, the Sparco S16 Multipoint Weld In at £1132.95 is built specifically for the GTI-6 shell.
Can I run a 6-point harness without a roll cage?
No. A 6-point harness needs anchor points above and behind the seat for the shoulder straps. Fit a roll cage or a properly engineered harness bar first.
Should I choose a competition bucket or a reclining seat?
A competition bucket holds you better through a corner but is harder to live with day to day. A reclining seat keeps more factory comfort while still improving on the standard seat.
