DIY: Bride Seat & Rail Install
I recently purchased a pair of Bride Digo seats and rails and thought I'd do a quick write-up for you guys for future reference. I cannot recall the exact size tools to use at this time, but you will need a socket set and allen-keys for the install. Power tools will make removal of the OEM seats a lot easier. Also, thanks to the guys at WekSos Industries for guiding me towards the correct mounting rails.
Unloading the package:
The mounts on the seat do not align with the rail:
Re-checked the packaging, adapter plates found well-hidden in the box:
Installation instructions and mounting hardware (Top-left for the belt-latch, three rows on bottom-right to mount adapter plate to rail. The two bolts and zip-tied washers will not be used):
Adapter plates mounted (note the lack of space between the mounting points and the slider, patience will be necessary to mount all six bolts):
Hardware for the belt-latch pre-mounted before the OEM belt-latch is installed:
For reference, here's the OEM layout for the passenger-side belt-latch:
OEM seat is held in by four bolts. Here's a picture of the passenger-side with the seat already removed:
Hardware to mount seat rail to the seat:
Under the driver-side seat, the seat-belt harness must be disconnected to remove the seat. There are three mounting points that attaches the harness to the bottom of the seat, detach the harness:
Seats installed. Perfectly clears the doors and glove compartment:
