Recaro SPA. leg bolsters much larger than the SPG, shoulder bolsters slightly wider. anyone that fits in an SPG should fit in an SPA though, unless you're the master of the leg press and have some monster thighs.
This is BARELY noticeable in person, just wanted to show a pic. Could have left it alone and let it rub a little, but my friend has had his SPG for a while and the rubbing has worn a small hole through the seat cover. $30 to replace the panel from honda or $400+ to replace the seat cover from recaro... zero rubbing now, including the glove box door.

I would love to get the Recaro Pole Position but I would absolutely want a lower seating position as I feel the stock height is too high.

Which adds height
I'm on the hunt for a set of Pole Positions to go on Taitec rails

I'm going with Buddy Club Rails for my Pole Positions, how have you guys mounted the seat belt latch? Is there a hole for it in the buddy club rails?

I guess you with buddy club rails will need Recaro side mounts, no?

Buddy Clubs will need some sort of side mount brackets
Tiatec has them built in hence it is lower but limits the seats that will fit.

The buddy clubs should come with everything you need, side mounts and all. At least mine did. I ordered mine from evasive and ended up having to go buy a bunch of nuts, bolts, and washers, but I'm not sure that that always happens since mine came in an unmarked box with nuts that obviously wouldn't work.

AFAIK the Buddy club rails do not come with the side mounts, they usually come with the seat. Though if you got it all from the same supplier I guess it could all come in one package
Yes the Tiatecs are set up to take SPG's with out side mounts, the problem is the width limit (396mm IRC) and I suspect the PP are wider. The Recaro web site is crap and does not give this dimension.
Any one care to mesure it? ie the width of the seat between the outside of the side mount holes. It needs to be less than 396mm to fit between the side mounts of tiatec rail.
That's before you even think about distance between mounts, and seat inclination, clearance of the base and clearance on the glovebox/door
