I didn't know there was a Rogue edition and the standard PCI super low offering - what I received from Heel Toe doesn't have the back bar.
Andrew - it may just be my particular seat, but the spacers used for mounting the seat caused threading issues on two of the inserts, most notably the rear left. I imagine the spacers were used so the side mount itself would clear the harness surround. With a mount shorter in height a spacer so thick may not have been needed. *this may just be an isolated incident*

With the 25mm spacer. I would prob opt for the worksbell tilt hub as well. Im not sure about you; but i know my legs would have trouble squeezing between the side bolster and the wheel coming in and out.

Base Confusion?!?
Trying to clear up some information regarding the slider open back slider base.
Posts by Manufacturer and Vendor
On 2017/04/14, pro car innovations posted two photos of the redesigned slider base with the open back
Base Observations - open
Sidemount observations - 6 seat mounting holes front and rear and a triangular window behind the front mounting holes
On 2018/02/13, rogue motorsports posted a photo of the redesigned slider base with the open back
Base Observations - open
Sidemount observations - these appear to be the older side mounts that ballade used with only 4 holes front and rear and no window
On 2018/04/02, rogue motorsports posted a photo of the redesigned slider base with the open back and the new pole position specific sidemounts
Base Observations - open
Sidemount observations - complete redesign with more rear mounting holes and windows
Questions for RogueMotorsports
Are the bases shown in all of these photos the same? Has some additional modification been made to the base since PCI Racing posted their original photo and are you selling that exclusively?
My experience
I purchased a driver and passenger set from PCI Racing (December 2017) and the set is identical (save for gunmetal grey sidemounts) to what PCI had posted on 2017/04/14. I have the driver side installed and and will install the passenger side when the second Pole Position arrives. Observations and instructions to follow in a separate thread.

The first two pics on PCI'S Ig were one of the original designs that eliminated the rear squared off plate in the back. We tested those out and found that the front of the base had a step up and sat about 1/2 or 3/4" higher. Another issue is that the base was too wide, we had the front step on them removed and we had them notched by the seat belt where it bolts to the car for better clearance. The first pic on our IG with the grey side mounts is what we used to sell before we had the revised version made. Those were similar to the Ballade version that we also sold. Ballade decided to discontinue it because it didnt fit all seats. So I contacted Brian and bugged the hell out of him to work with me and help make a pole position specific seat rail. It took quite a bit of arm twisitng for it to happen. He said he was tired of the s2k and no wide seats fit properly lol. So thats when we went through a few different bases until we came up with what we thought fit best with the pole position.

I don't understand how you could run into threading issues? You just put the bolt through the spacer and into the seat? You just need to keep everything fairly loose while putting in each bolt and once they are all threaded in a bit tighten everything up. Did you make sure to turn the bolts to the right instead of the left? :P

Yeah I considered that but not really something I need. I can get in and out of the car pretty easily and only needed a small extension. My seat sits close to as far back as it can. For people sitting closer to the wheel the tilt is a nice option for sure.

He offers a different base with his standard seat rails. He never really cared to make one specifically for the pole position. Don't want to clutter your thread with more nonsense, if anyone has any questions that Andrew hasn't answered yet feel free to pm us. He's covered just about everything with great detail

There isn't. It isn't complicated. He worked with PCI to have him make a new version based on suggestions he put forward to him.

On the seat bolts IDFK either. Yes everything loose and spacer etc. it took a 3/4 size spacer to allow it to catch the threads. Like I said this most likely an exception.

Ok. that makes sense. I rubbed the bottom of my Grinta 330mm. I now installed the Mugen gen 3 and they are 350mm. So i think i am going to change my hub to possibly a quick release or my legs are gonna destroy the wheel.
