'fraid so. the rails *may* be universal, but i'm not 100% sure. i'm going to check the sizes of the rail against some other seats and see.

i just installed them (THANK YOU S2R!!! ), and took a quick test drive - initial reactions:

- i need to lose some weight, in fact, i couldn't get into S2R's Mugen seats because i've gotten so fat
- i need to lose some more weight
- wow, the seating position is now lowered, eventhough we didn't use the lowest position setting
- wow, i can really enjoy the car now without feeling "loose"
- wow, it's difficult to get in and out of the car (again, need to lose some weight)
- the seat fits SNUG in the car. i'll post some pics and show you what i mean.

unlike my wife and some ex-gfs, i'm not ashamed of my stats: 5'11", 200+ (haven't had the courage to weigh myself for a while), 36 (a bit tight now...) waist, and a big hip. i fit in this seat "ok", but it's REALLY snug.

i welcome anyone to drop by our shop during normal business hours and check it out

Hey Rich, Nice seats. How much lower do you sit? Those are still bottom mounts eh?

Also, what is the seat surface material? Looks like you chose the right color.

any interests in a GB?
indeed, I smell a GB, damn, don't host this GB till end of Jan, will you?? Money is kinda an issue now..!!
oh!! can I design the color I want?
actually I want it all in black and the center insert to be red...!! will that be possible?

No, but you can always get it re-upholstered

Nice seats Richard. You actually weight 200+ pounds!!! Damn, you don't look that heavy, but then again, I haven't seen you in a long time. Guess we'll find out on Friday how heavy you look. Better lay off the Rajin' Cajun red beans and rice.
