nice. bride euro ii has been my ideal seat for a while...when i'm finally ready to get seats i'm gonna pick some up
FYI: If you are considering the Bride EURO II there are a few things you want to know....

The Bride "MO" rail as it comes from the factory makes the seat sit kinda high (look at my pics) and actually raises your seating position slightly. This could be good or bad depending on how tall you are.

For me being 6'2, I did not like it at all and it actually decreases your leg room too which is a big reason why I did not use it on the driver's side. I initially bought wanted EURO II for both sides of the car so now you know why it's only on the passenger side.

Also the EURO II comes with this metal bar on the back of the seat to allow it to fold forward (totally useless in an s2000 plus it takes away about 2" of ability for the seat to slide rearwards) Thus I removed the bar with 2 philips screws. However the seat still would not slide far enough back for me because the actual rear cushion is REALLY Thick on the EURO II. So this killed my leg room which again is a problem if you're 6'2. But for my passenger it's not as big an issue.

The Stradia Sport allowed me to gain both leg and headroom so a win/win situation for me.

After playing with these seats for quite some time I learned all this so if you have any questions feel free to ask

Glad this info is of use to some of ya!

How are you preventing the seat belts form wearing the shoulder area of your seats?

Talk about digging up an old thread but a few guys asked me about my Bride seats so I'll just bump this thread up with some FINISHED PICS:

(couple notes, both cars use the existing OEM seat belts/buckles as I find it silly to be using a 4-point harness just for show)
