Default Pic request of driver side seat brackets

I have had my pole position on buddy club rails forever now but I recently switched my harness and the slider is hitting my harness clip on. Then it reminded me that I can't even slide the seat back more because the slider hits the inboard rear seat bolt

I've been wanting to upgrade to something better. What do you guys use and if you can post a pictures
I was thinking planted seat mount and rails or the ballade sports one

It's an alignment issue with the bolt or you need to use a bolt with a smaller head. I ran into this same issue but I'm now able to slide the rail over the head of the bolt and move the seat back all the way.

I've been very happy with the quality of the PCI Seat Mounts, especially for the money. However, if you're much shorter than 5'8" or 5'9" then it probably won't work.

how are you mounting your harness?

I use eye bolts for the sub belt and two side belts.

1 eye bolt in the stock hole

1 eye bolt drilled through into the trans tunnel with a big washer behind it

2 eye bolts through the floor for the sub straps


i dont think it is wise to mount your harness to the bolts you are using to mount your seat rail

How low does this get the seat? I'm looking to sit as low as possible. Do you have a pic by any chance?

I am using a eye bolt through the outboard hole on the driver side that holds the stock belt. I will take a picture tomorrow but currently my slider hits the clip. The eye bolt sits right under my rail

Here's a picture from the side of the PCI rail with a Recaro Pole Position. You can tell that, unless you take off the plastic belt guide, the seat itself can't slide any lower in the rear.

The second picture is of the gap in the rear of the seat. You can see the gap between the floor and the mount and then between the mount and the seat. Again this seat isn't good for shorter individuals, but it is extremely well made and very solid.

I'm using the Pci mount on a recaro spg. Bolted on the lowest slot in the rear as well. I'm looow. My hand barely clears between the seat and floor. The side mount does touch the plastic harness guide, but no big deal. Also note, I'm 5'6 with another 40mm to get closer to the pedals. I'll try to get pics soon

The problem is the harness on the outboard side. I don't have any room right now. I am wondering if I need to go custom
