Default Buckets or Rails?

I'm in the market for a few interior upgrades but i don't know which way I really go. I own a AP1 and i want a better seat/seat level. I've sourced so BYS seat rails or the Bride Gias seats. Obviously its about which is the better bang for the buck. I daily drive my S, and the OE seats are starting to show, but its a $1500 difference between the two products. Has anyone seat or install either of these items??? Please share your feedback,and thanks for your support

changing out the seat will make the biggest differnce for the interior. I myself had gias in my old car (replica) just saving for authentic one now for the s2000. Currently i have a set of bride XAXX II and i love it more then stock.

i believe the gias will be lower then stock seat. i had the replica in my old car which was a miata. the bride xaxx seating position felt the same if not just a tad bit lower then oem (this is with bride s2000 spec rails). I just switch out to recaro pole position yesterday and its alot lower with the buddy club low rails.

Not sure about the GIAS, but I put in some Bride Zeta III recently and it's more comfortable than the stock seats on long trips. No more lower back pain!

The GIAS should offer similar levels of comfort and look great, but you're looking at $3.5-4k for two of them with rails. All of these seats can be mounted lower than stock with the right rails (may have to go non-Bride rails if you want a really low mount).
