I picked up some adult go cart seats last fall from princess auto (similar to harbout freight in the US)
Drivers side fits but rubs if I use the sliders, passengers side is about an inch too wide the hip and side support .
I have one mostly disassembled and it should be a fairly easy modification but I am stuck at separating the seat belt gromits/pass throughs). I assume they are just snapped together but thought I would ask if anyone has tried to remove any from any type of race seats.
Thanks
Dale

I think they just snap together too. I'd use grippy perforated rubber sheet (like they use for opening jars and lining drawers). From the back of the seat, lay the sheet over opposite inside corners and alternately pull with your thumbs to walk it out.
