I have a fixed back bucket seat to install in my car, have the appropriate rails to suit (made for my car and this seat by KW - seat is also KW). Since the rails are not custom and I am using original holes & bolts do I need a cert for the seat! Its also a 4door so doesnt need to be reclinable.

Yes it needs to be certed! its not a OEM seat or rails so needs certification

WTF, dont answer a thread if you are just going to insult people. I asked for a cert/wof guy who may use this MB to answer the Q, not any random person. If you cant back up your answer then dont answer. I checked the LVVTA website and couldnt find anything saying it needs a cert or doesnt so just thought I'd try on here if anyone has done it before or knows.

Most Qs I have I've answered myself but looking on the website but couldnt find anything about bucket seats using original mounting holes. Instead of relying on dickheads who think they are the sh-t and know it all, I will just ring the LVVTA business.

Ask a certifier, their word is the last one you need. and the information they give is free and correct. If they do not know the can get the correct info. Better than 15 guesses on here.
LVV certification is not required provided that: the seat is either an unmodified OE seat from another vehicle or of a known and reputable aftermarket brand, and ??

In other words NOT a home made seat/brackets etc Very SIMILAR seating heights etc to the OEM seat Factory certed (aftermarket factory included) *** OEM floor mounting points used. OR (if you want simple terms) Certed / Direct bolt / & of a core design very similar to OEM
