I'm guessing that Sparco Milanos would have fitament issues in an FD? I think those look very nice but forsee problems with the mounts.

retail seat is $850, bracket is $195. I believe street price is 10-15% off. My main reason for choosing bride is to have a high quality seat with proper attachment, bride is the only one offer a bolt in solution for fd, it does no good if you have a FIA seat with a flimsy mount.

There was nothing wrong with the stock seats, it's just that I'm too tall in it with a helmet on.

Two twinturbos,

I have A4's on the corbeau mounts without the sliders. I needed the height so I removed the sliders and replaced them with a strip of 3/16 steel with multiple holes so that I could adjust the seats, by unbolting them. They fit but are tight. I also hammered the transmission tunnel in on the drivers side near the back of the seat to make sure I did not have any rubbing with the seat.
