A lot of aftermarket seats here, but what do you guys do about rails? I can't source any for my Corbeau ones anywhere

My Sparcos...

Drivers side slides, passenger side is fixed, and mounted lower for the 'rally effect'...





Let me know what you think!

i thing most people make there own mate, i wouldn have a clue how too tho lol

I don't either. I've asked a few people who's had "mates make their ones" and asked them if they'd do another set for cash, and they said no! I've found a company who should do mine, and if they're easy enough, i'll get them to use my car as a template and make a few sets for you guys. Might even get them cheaper (group buy)

I bought mine with Sparco sliders and rails and had the base mount welded in. Took it to my welders and whipped him 90quid and that was that!

Had Corbeau Carrera's in my first n/a Starlet.

Then the driverside broke so I put the passeneger side to the driverside and standard in the passenger side.

Then that broke so I went back to standard for a bit!

Then I got a Sparco Sprint 5, nice seat for the price they was back then!!

Now I have TRD's (apparently) in my GT, whatever they are they are nice JDM Recaro Pole Position type seats.

And the GT seats are living in the run around Starlet now, awsome mod IMO :)

You will find that ZEP, Bride rails etc, will work with your seats.

I run a bride rail on my Cobra Imola seat, and a Bride rail on my Recaro.

Cheers, there's 4 driver side bride rails on eBay but they're pretty pricey!

floor mats?

juts out of curiosity.. lots of pics up on here show no floor mats in the cars.. is it coz the pix were taken during a wash/clean up of the car or most guys just roll without floor mats..? :D
