SKU 00499054-1716 is the steel base-mount sub-frame for the Peugeot 306, covering the March 1993 to June 2001 production run. It replaces the standard seat runners and accepts base-mount sport seats using the 345mm x 271mm bolt pattern from Sparco, OMP, or Corbeau.
The old product description recommends using Sparco sliding runners with this sub-frame, which suggests the frame works with runners as part of the installation for fore-aft adjustment and final positioning. Runners are SKU 0049306 (single) or SS0049302-X2 (pair). Worth budgeting for these alongside the sub-frame if you need the adjustment.
Both driver and passenger sided versions are listed for RHD cars. This listing covers one sub-frame.
The Peugeot 306 has a dedicated following in UK club motorsport, particularly in rally and autocross, and it crossed over from road use to track ownership in large numbers. The cabin is narrow by modern standards. The R100’s slim bolster profile is often the natural fit in the 306, as it is in other French hatch cockpits of this generation, where a deeper-bolstered seat may foul the sill or door card.
At £75.50, the 306 sub-frame is priced in the same bracket as the Corsa C application. If you need runners alongside the frame, factor them in at the time of order.
Will this fit my car?
This frame is made for the Peugeot 306. 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.
