Modification of car seats

Car seat modification has a certain possibility, but it must strictly comply with regulations to ensure legality. It mainly involves the following aspects:

The scope of legal modification: Seat modification is feasible within the allowed range, and the core principle is not to change the number of seats and the overall structure of the vehicle. For example, changing the seat material (such as fabric to leather) or adjusting the color is a legal modification, provided that the modified seat is firm, the seat belt function is normal, and it does not affect safety performance.

The definition of illegal modification: Unauthorized increase or decrease in the number of seats (such as changing a five seat car to seven seats), changing the layout of seats, or altering the structure of the frame are all illegal behaviors. Such modifications are not only illegal, but may also fail annual inspections due to their impact on vehicle safety performance.

Penalties and risks of modification: Illegal modification of seats will face serious penalties, including vehicle detention, orders to restore the original state, and fines; Those with serious circumstances (such as safety hazards caused by modifications) may be forcibly scrapped or liable for accident compensation.

Compliance modification steps:

Apply for permission from the vehicle management office before modification and explain the modification content.

Choose a reputable modification factory for operation.

Timely record the modification and update the driving license information to ensure legality.

Future policies may be relaxed, but seat modifications still need to prioritize safety. It is recommended that car owners prioritize material and comfort adjustments to avoid structural changes and ensure driving safety.
