Possibly dumb question but does coily seats fit into a leaf sierra?
like does all the brackets and everything line up or would you need to mod it abit.

Completely different brackets mate. It would be far easier to put aftermarket seats in a leafy then coily ones

Rails are completely different. Coily seats have side mount rails - leafy seats are top mount.

Are the bottom mounts, that go into the floor the same though?

Nope,
Leafy rails won't bolt to a coily seat, or visa versa, the angle of the ends is different.
You can cut bits of the Leaf rail up & weld to the Coily rail, but it's all a bit of a hack & unlikely to pass any sort of engineering inspection.

Ok, against my better judgement, I've just done this - fit Coily seats into a Leafer.
Ended up cutting all the mounting bracketary off the coily rails & when from there.
Didn't want to change the car, so leafy seats can still be bolted in.
The rails on the coily are not even across the car - 20mm difference - means the seats ended up being 20mm taller than they should be - still sort of feels ok & you'd get used to it.
P/side needed rail 'packers' to the tune of 70mm & 90mm to line up with the drivers.
So, doable - yes, if you have a welder & some nouse.
Recommended - no, took hours to sort it & I mean about 8-10.
Would it pass a RWC inspection? probably not if the tester knew what he was looking at.
Rgs, Michael
