The Ford Ka Mk1 has a raised floor section that needs a top-hat bridge piece to clear properly. That piece is included in the price here. Part number 00499069-1698.
These frames fit the Ka Mk1 from October 1996 to 2008, using the standard 345mm x 271mm bolt pattern, and are compatible with base-mount seats from Sparco, OMP, and Corbeau.
The frames are handed: driver and passenger frames are different. Select the position from the options on this page. Add to the basket twice if fitting both seats. Price is per frame. Sparco sliding runners are recommended for fore-aft adjustment and are available from the dropdown.
The higher price compared to simpler frames (the Polo Mk4 or Seat Leon frames are £78 to £82.50) reflects the top-hat piece. If you were to buy it separately from Sparco, it would be around £35 on top of the base frame cost. It is included here.
The Ka Mk2 (2008 onwards) takes a different sub-frame. The frames listed here are for the original Ka up to 2008 only.
Will this fit my car?
This frame is made for the Ford Ka (Mk1). 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.
