Mazdaspeed bucket seat's

hi guys, looking for a bit of help if possible.

i have a set of these mazdaspeed bucket seats for my FD....



and im having a problem fitting them. basiclly the seats came out of an mx-5 and have different rails on them. they are to wide just to slot in. now i know that on japanparts.com you use to be able to buy the rails that would just bolt on to the bottom's but when i bought them i had an email back saying that they no longer stock them??!
was wondering if anyone on here would know if anyone makes a set or know's if there is anywhere else that can get hold of any.

any help would be much appreciated

Did you try to take the rails off of your stock seats and bolt them up to the Mazdaspeed seats?

^ I don't know... I like them as is! I'm pretty sure you can find the right fitting ones on this site if you ask around.. Try the parts section and see if you can dig anything up
