We're not impatient, it is just that you made a thread on new seats before you installed them...

That sir, is called a tease

Sorry about the wait guys. The seats were a pain in the *** to install do to the fact that the sparco brackets didnt fit, so I drilled the stock brackets to fit the sparco sliders. I am in the process of changing my interior to black, so cut me some slack on the tan seats.

The seats look good, they don't flow with tan too well though.

Yeah. The driver side seat is taller than the other due to bigger brackets. I am going to try to fix that later today. These seats are a pain in the *** to install without brackets that actually fit.

Once you get them closer to the floor it will look great. With them being up near the T-Top it looks kinda funny.

i ordered brackets for my recaros from Wedge. DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!!! for 200 bucks they charged me for seat brackets they did not fit my recaros at all, AFTER WAITING 6 weeks for them to be made. I called them and told them they did not fit, and was basically told too bad, and restocking fee is very high and they dont pay for any of the shipping, so i told them to F off, and modified them myself to work

Not sure where my brackets are from but they are as low as possible. I welded them strait to the sliders to have the seats as low as they can go.
