Renault Twingo Mk1 bucket seat guide

1993 to 2007

The Twingo Mk1, 1993 to 2007, is a light, characterful basis for an entry-level track day or autotest car. OMP and Corbeau both build subframes for the Mk1 specifically. We do not currently list a roll cage confirmed for the Mk1, contact us if you need one sourced.

Mounting

The OMP Direct Fit Subframes at £82.98 and the Corbeau Direct Fit Sub-frames at £245 are both confirmed for the Twingo Mk1.

The Sparco FIA Steel Side Mount Brackets at £75 and the Endurance Motorsport Sliding Runner Kit at £34 give further fixing options.

The OMP Direct Fit Subframes at £82.98 are the practical choice for most builds. The Corbeau Direct Fit Sub-frames at £245 are the premium alternative if you want the matched Corbeau fitment.

Competition bucket seats

The OMP TRS-X Steel Frame at £220 and Corbeau Sprint X System 1 at £575 are the accessible starting points. The OMP Champ-R at £318 and Sparco Rev QRT at £345 sit a step up. The Mirco RS7 Velour at £360 and Sparco Grid Q at £365 are further options. The Sabelt Titan X-Large at £511, Sparco Evo QRT Sky at £510, and Corbeau Pro Series X System 1 at £610 are the top of the range for a Twingo built properly for competition.

Reclining sport seats

The Sparco R100 at £235 and Auto Style Type RS6-II Fabric at £255 or Vinyl at £278 are the accessible starting points. The Auto Style Type BS5 at £295 and Sparco R333 at £374.56 sit a step up. The Sparco GT at £421.58 is the top of the range.

The Sparco R100 at £235 is the practical starting point. The Auto Style Type BS5 at £295 is a well judged mid-tier choice. For the top of the range, the Sparco GT at £421.58 gives the most support for a car built up for spirited road driving.

Harnesses

Harnesses need a properly engineered 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 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 bar. 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, a harness bar 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 Twingo fitted with a harness bar for track use.

Common questions

Not currently confirmed. Contact us if you need one sourced.

The OMP Direct Fit Subframes at £82.98 are the practical choice for most builds. The Corbeau option at £245 is the premium alternative.

No. A 6-point harness needs anchor points above and behind the seat for the shoulder straps. Fit a properly engineered harness bar first.

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.
