Just got my racing seat and the sliders that come with it are crap. They don't fit (what a surprise). Anyone have any idea how to install them in a 6th gen hatch? Here is a pic of the bottom of the seat. The red circled is where the sliders should be mounted on.


Here is a pic of the stock slider. The circled is where it is mounted.


Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee....I need help!!!! Would Sparco sliders/brackets work???

i'm having the same sort of problems with my seats. i bought some CRX seats, but they don't my 4th gen hatch. i talked to Si Veloz, and he's going to help make some custom brackets.

also, jooksingkid, could help you. pm him, see if he can help you. he did my first seat swap and also a swap for dented dx, oh yeah, and a seat swap in his car too.

Ok, I actually figured out how the "universal" sliders fit on. There were spacers attached to the bolts that mount onto the mounting brackets (which I have to make or buy). I thought they were suppose to be there. But then when I looked at a post of someone having similar difficulties (but with a j-body car), I saw the spacers inbetween the seat and the sliders. DOH!!!!
Here's the pics with them installed



Now how would I go about making the brackets to mount these to the floor??

I custom made a adaptor bracket between the seat and the rail

I need to make the bracket 1.5" wider
so, I went to home depot, picked up some L metal welding bar, bolts and nuts

Do some cutting and drilling to make it fit.
