the two at the back or is it your mech thats movin

 

the two bolts at the front,and the whole bottom half of the seat is still wobbley any ideas? just wondered if its a prone thing on scoobs and is there a simple fix

 

The seat itself bolts to a subframe, which bolts to the floor. Four bolts.

When I swapped out my UK Turbo seats for STi6 ones, I found it stupidly easy to strip the threads of the bolts holding the subframe to the floor. I did one, and it no longer held. Check that first. When REPLACING bolts, DO NOT tighten other than by hand until you have ALL FOUR in place. If any are tight, wiggle the seat until they go in fully, fingers only. Then tighten with a socket.

If it's not that, remove the seat completely and check the fastening between the subframe and the seat. Also look for obviously-moving parts that shouldn't be. I once drove a Carlton that had yours' symptoms and the sub-frame had been broken by a fat b'stard........a couple of welds and it was OK again

 

ha ha ok cheers mate will have another look
