I used the OEM rails and the shop welded a square brace so the side mount brackets (Brides) fit onto them. Then he bolted the square brace onto the OEM slider rails. It's a bit taller than optimal but it clears with my helmet on. If you get Bride rails, make sure you get their "LOW MAX" version. I ordered the regular rails and it elevated the seats like a baby chair. I ended up selling it to someone w/ Bride seats...works great with those.

Not familiar with teh Memory Fab stuff but I hear Nagisa is a low fitment bracket.

Bride Exas III. Great seats, but only if your thin. I got a 32" waist and I fit snug.

Talk about a blind spot.

No, not with the factory rear strut bar! Get a harness bar with beefier than stock mounting brackets or a 4 pt. rollbar.

Sparco and Corbeau are both quality manufacturers, yet their seats are not as pricey as Bride.
