Doubt the engineer will be fond of the modifications to the seat rails.

Cheers

Escort Ghia mounts would probably be the easiest to source and are same as RS/ Scheel. I'll keep an eye out on this side of the country (WA) and let you know if any come up.
The ply board is an interesting fix for the sag, they all do it, I once pitted mine with a phone book under there, lol the examiner was none the wiser.

Hi, I see this is a really old conversation that I've come across which still leaves me  bewildered.
1/My black and white question is: should a 10/79 RS2000 have the side lever or the base lever ?
2/Next is can someone confirm the rear seat pattern in the images is correct and the front seat pattern is a replacement aftermarket
3/ Is the bottom loop where the seat runners bolt on is correct for this Date of Manufacture or should the runners be on the base of the seat ?

2/Yes rear seat is correct Beta cloth, front is a re-trim.
 
3/All good there, seat frame - loop bolts to seat runner

My 79 had side levers and my 80 has base levers. Who knows when they changed?

Cheers
