i was only able to find momo or sparco brackets...... the sparco brackets and sliders were 150 each seat..... momo was 225.......

hey andy, which seats did you get?

 
Rep Power: 370

Aftermarket seats are more narrow then the stock ones. They won't bolt up directly to the existing holes so you'll need a Base Mount. Sparco makes a good one or, if you know anyone that can weld, just have them fabricate one for you. Here's what I'm talking about. Click me

BTW... you'll need sliders and rails unless you don't want your seats to move at all.

I got a set of sparco sprint, hey where did u find the sparco brackets for 150?

 
Rep Power: 0

Rep Power: 0

base mount... thats what the guy from speedtech prolly meant.
thats 50bucks US?
is it possible to get them in the gta..? or only internet purchase??

it's still better then 200bucks ... and i dont mind spending the time on my own to work on my own car.

hey aznsaint, thats not too bad, wht about sliders? can we use stock ones

 
Rep Power: 0

my r1 racing seats came with sliders and rails.
i still dont know which is which.......... sliders/rails haha....
but i supposedly have both.. and i need a base mount to install my seats.

as for using the stock rails/sliders... im not sure
i hvaent taken out my stock seats yet..

'cause i am wondering if i just unscrew the stock rails/sliders and bolt them onto my racing seats.
'cause i was able to take apart the rails/sliders from my racing seats... its was just a bolt on.

..actually, now to think of it, i should try that first. save me the 50bucks US as well.

azn saint, blkcivic and whoever want to install their seats:

go to Alex and he will build anything you want cuz he is good at custom work and it will be for sure less than the momo or sparco brackets or seat base (whatever they are called cuz i am not racing seats expert)
give him a call and see what he can do for u. again, mention Ken from 7thgencivic with silver sedan and see what kind of price he can give you

good luck

You can buy sparco sliders or brackets for bout' $150-$200 at Pac Mall..but they're always on back order..

TenzoR Sliders are pretty kewl too it's height adjustable..

Seats can be installed at Cyber City MaCowan and Highway7..they do custom railings too..

Every thing is installed, thank fob for telling me about alex, hes a really nice guy! but some how the seats are weird and hard the seat??? maybe i'm not used to it yet.... i'll put some pics on later

 
Rep Power: 0

no problem andy...i am always here to help my fellow 7th gen member
i am glad u like alex's workmanship cuz he done many amazing jobs in the past and quality were excellent

as for you seats getting weird..i think it's a transition period....you will get used to it later

 
Rep Power: 0

how much for the install and brackets>?

 
Rep Power: 0

hey andy, any pics?
like fob said, it's a transition period... i felt so uncomfortable driving my buddy's car with sparco evos at first, but after a few laps around the track, i fell in love with them... heehee......
how much did the install cost you?

 
Rep Power: 0

i'll put some pics up soon. It cost me 160 and i think its well worth it cuz he spended 5 hrs into it. i think the seats i have is for a tall skinny person because its so tight and my feet barely reaches the pedal, i look like a 5 yr old driving a car...

 
Rep Power: 0

doesnt your seats come with sliders/rails>?? so you can adjust the length???

what kind of seats do you have? ...bucket seats?

 
Rep Power: 0

well 1028civic has sparco sprinit with custom brackets and sliders and he also looked like a kid driving cuz the seat was so low to the floor

but ya alex takes his time when he works on car so u got a good deal for $160 that he spent a good 5 hrs in your car

next time get your exhaust done there too (if you dont have one now)

 
Rep Power: 0

hey andy, so it was 160 for both seats? damn that's a good deal. i need to get mine in quick.... heehee.....

Rep Power: 0

hey iamfob, I got some problem with seats too..I got the corbeau Forza from a friend and it came with everything like sliders, rails..etc, yet it is for a 2000 civic model. U think it will fit? Or should I bring it to Alex? Where is his shop again?

 
Rep Power: 0
