Vauxhall Astra MK5 bucket seat guide
Vauxhall Astra Mk5 Bucket Seat Guide
Vauxhall Astra Mk5 story...
The Vauxhall Astra Mk5, (2004-2010), straight from day one, has been simply an incredibly popular for track and modification. Once you start using your Astra Mk5 for fast road and track use, you’ll soon realize just how much you need new bucket seats to provide more support.Â
On cornering, you may find your self holding onto the steering wheel tighter than usual, tensing your thighs and legs against the central console and/or door card. You’ll probably find your weight shifting in the seat and having to re-position your self after the corner.Â
None of this is correct. Your seat should provide the right level of support so that you can grip the steering wheel only for steering, your legs should be supported and your weight shouldn’t shift around. The recommendations we provide are to ensure that you feel comfortable and supported allowing you to focus on the job at hand.Â
We’ve worked closely with our customers to create our Vauxhall Astra Mk5 guide.
The resulting recommendations are based on previous customer car installations.
