i was wondering. if i could take the brace or w/e under the stock steats and put those onto aftermarket ones. think they'll fit? or do i have to buy something that fits both the seat and the car?

I used the stock sliders for my aftermarket seats, I just put 2 bar across the sliders, 1 front 1 back then drilled the holes where I needed them. BTW, everything I used was from Home Depot. The passenger side was alittle tricky, u need to level it out with washers. Search theres threads out there on this subject, I know I posted a thread here on how to do it 3 years ago. I think it mght be still around!!

wow, for some reason, i really really like those mazdaspeed seats, i think i might just buy me a pair and since my interior is all black, they'd work very well

now here is the real question. How high does it sit?

jgrts20

You still have a good 6 plus inches from the headliners to the top of the seat!!

jgrts20

I thought mazdaspeed seats came just as a bolt on application?

I would venture to say that by the looks of them and what i know mazdaspeed seat to look like, those are not real. They are a generic seat that has been stitched with mazdaspeed logos.

I have a sparco pro2000 in my FC using a bride seat rail. I had to cut it apart and weld it back together to get it to sit low enough for me to fit in the car with my helmet on.

see i was thinking of fabbing a rail myself. but i'm freaked out about not doing it right or calcs for it incase of a crash. o.0 i mean good to be in the seat in a crash, but not so good if the seat is not inside the car anymore haha. i'm looking for a nice fast road car, so yeah, i'm considering collisions with idiotic people who drive out there too o.0 *sighs*

I did, it took alot of modifying though.

I have genuine Mazdaspeed mounting brackets for the FC if anyone is interested. $100 shipped.

I like the color scheme of the red netami seats but experience tell me that you must have a wet butt after an hour of driving in the summer.

I have a wet butt after driving in any fc for an hour lol.
These are better than the oem leather seats.

phoenix7

peeing on yourself doesn't count! I don't experience much of the wet butt with the non leather seats though.

What about something real generic, like these for instance?

They are cheap but pretty comfortable, I've always wanted a set for the 7.

I always considered an aftermarket seat that was not a fixed bucket to be a waste of time in a 2 seater car. thats just how i feel after driving any car with a bucket vs recliner.

I had to do the same thing to mine BUT doesn't the passenger seat sit higher than the drivers side? I cant seem to get the PS to sit nice and low like the DS. From what I can tell in your pic is that yours sits just like mine. I would love to know how to get it to sit lower AND level.

I did the same with mine. It took me a while to get the right amount of washers but im happy with the way it came out. My friend gave me the seats for free since he sold his civic. And I had to drill the stock sliders.
