SKU 00499042 is the steel base-mount sub-frame for the Citroen C2, for cars from October 2002 onwards. It replaces the standard seat runners and accepts base-mount sport seats using the 345mm x 271mm bolt pattern from Sparco, OMP, or Corbeau.
One detail that sets this application apart from others in the range: the C2 sub-frame is designed to work with the car’s original seat sliders, not with Sparco’s aftermarket sliding runners. If the C2’s factory sliders are in sound condition, they stay in place and work with this sub-frame as normal. If they are not, replacement original sliders are the correct answer rather than the Sparco aftermarket runners used on some other applications.
Both driver and passenger sided versions are listed for RHD cars. This listing covers one sub-frame.
The Citroen C2 appeared in one-make racing and is a common entry-level motorsport choice. The cabin is small, and seat shell width is a real consideration before ordering. The R100’s narrow bolster profile fits where wider shells foul the door card or sill. Measuring the widest point of the shell against the available space in the cockpit is worth doing before the seat is bought.
At £78.50, the C2 sub-frame sits at a similar price to the comparable applications. The factory-slider compatibility simplifies this installation compared to builds that need aftermarket runners to complete the mounting.
Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: Citroen C2 Track Build with Sparco Rev Seats, 6 Point Harnesses and Roll Cage. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.
Will this fit my car?
This frame is made for the Citroen C2. Chassis code and years matter more than the badge, as floor pans change between generations, so if your car sits near a changeover year, send us the registration and we will confirm before you order.
Which seats does it take?
It takes seats drilled 345mm x 271mm (the Sparco and OMP seat pattern). The Compatible seats tab above lists what bolts straight on. If your seat is not listed, tell us what you run and we will confirm the fit.
Do I keep fore-and-aft adjustment?
Only with a sliding runner between the frame and the seat, which is a separate part on Sparco frames. If more than one person drives the car, budget for the runner. Our guide to sliding runners explains the options and widths.
Base mount or side mount, and does it matter?
This is a base-mount frame: the seat bolts down through its base, the simpler stack that suits seats with a flat bottom and keeps the install low-fuss. Our guide on base mount versus side mount explains the whole fitting stack.
Is this for the driver or passenger side?
Both sides are available on this listing, pick driver or passenger side at the point of order (sides listed are for right-hand-drive cars). Left-hand-drive car? Ask us, as the sides swap over and availability varies by model.
