Bay Area,
Yeah here's the story, i bought a sparco sprint seat and the guy sold it to me with a honda civic bracket (with these two bars that have three holes on the sides, hieght adjustments?) and universal sliders.

Now, i sold off the civic brackets (with the hieght bars), now im left with the seat and universal slider. I just ordered a bracket base off a site a week ago, and they made sparco ship me one directly... So today i got my bracket in today.

Now i know im missing something, because i cannot bolt this right up... dosen't work, need something to hold the slider to the base... probably that hieght bars thingys? Let me know guys, im just pissed i have to buy so much crap for this LOL...

Thanks!

:cool:
 
No you need the hieght adjusters. There are three pieces to the mounting of the seats. Theres the sliders and the base and then the two really wide U shaped brackets that connect them together. Just a sec lemme find you a pic.
 
call up sparco, or send them an e-mail the sight is www.sparcousa.com they just came out with some new brackets that bolt directly to the seat and place the seat where it needs to be in a 2g. I am ordering a set tomorow. other wise you need the height adjustment things, and even when they are all the way down the seats sit about an 1.5-2" higher than the stock. I know this from personal experiance, look at profile.
 
this is whati did on my 1G


I just used the old brackets, took them off and apart, torched off everything that was not needed. Then I bolted them to the floorboard. Then measured in reffrence with the seat holes. Then measured and wrote it all down. Then i just welded some bars across, then drilled holes for the seat. I also put some washers in betwen the bracket and the seat to make it sit a tad leaned back. Sot now they bolt right in and move back and forth like the stocky. And BTW I have Sparco Speeds, so they do not recline, that is why I shimmed them
