Chip - did you make this replica or someone else? I have been looking for one that will clear our door panels and this looks perfect. Can you let me know who makes this and whether it is FIA legal?

These seats are sold under the RoTec brand as well as available directly from Taiwan. With the measurements I had on hand it seemed as they would hit the roof. Please share details of their fitment.

Seats are made in Taiwan. Mounted on Nagisa Auto super low down rails. They have to be modified.

They do not hit the head liner with a perfect fit.

I guess people dont read threads anymore

BTW, Chip, where did you get the anodizing done, I have been thinking about getting most of my setup anodized especially when I make my UIM.

Ano is done by a local company.

They do great work, fast turn around 1-2 days. lucky for me is 10 min away. Cheap also.

Only thing they don't do is bright ano, they used to but not anymore.

Thank you for all the compliment once again guys...

^GT45 isn't exactly a "little" detail is it?

I've spent hours texting the details of this car to my buddy. I've said it once I'll say it forever.

I really cant wait to see what you've got in store for the wiring. Its becoming a bit of a hobby watching people do wiring.....
