Default some seat questions

so im considering replacing my cheesy factory seats with these Bride low max kevlar seats...all black, not these exactly...


they come with the sliders to attach to brackets but i cant seem to find specific brackets for the F-body.

i did find these...



says they'll fit Bride seats along with a bunch of others. i could possibly make it work either way if something isnt right but my questions are...

1. anyone have these seats and can comment on their quality/confy-ness.
2. how well do they fit in the f-body cars
3. anyone know where to get specific brackets for our cars.

thanx for any help!

I had brides in my last car. If those are the cheap e-bay knockoffs(Bride Canada/Taiwan), they suck.

If they are real from Bride JAPAN, they are super comfortable. You can tell the difference in the fabric used, foam, and structure for sure.

And I custom made my brackets, but wedge engineering makes brackets for our car.

Nice...thanx for the info for the brackets.

They are probably knock offs but do say made in japan so I dunno. I'll do some more searching around when I'm ready to pull the trigger on them or another seat.

If they are anywhere under $2k for a set and are brand new they are replicas, the real version's of these are around 1-1200$ each. I bought their cheapest seat at the time (Digo Type-R) and even those were $550 a piece on sale.

Edit: Just checked their site, those seats are currently $1,600 a piece before tax + shipping from Japan.
