Custom Seat Brackets - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #34048 6 posts Started by prpnum1
Hey, I can't find any place that will do the seat mounts for me around here. Can anybody from either LA area or Orange County tell me where they get it done. thanks.
Will those make the seats sit up higher? Its my understanding that custom mounts make them higher, and im already a pretty tall guy, and dont wanna have my head rubbing the roof, but i really want racing seats...

I am now a part of the ihavemorethen16gc club!

To my understanding, any aftermarket seats will make you sit higher...mine do atleast, and i have heard a lot of people here comment about that problem.

yea..my sparcos sit about 1 n a half inches higher than stock, but the way my brackets are designed, i could b an inch higher..or 4 inches higher..when i first installed it it was at the highest setting and my head was hittin my roof. I heard from the guys at JRP(where i ordered my seats) that some people just weld or screw the sliders onto the base.

you can see the 2 other holes where the base mounts. I cut the enitre base down to the last hole and its about an inch higher than factory seats.
