Hey guys just purchased 2x recaro pole position spg seats for my DC2R

both seats have the side mount brackets i just dont know
which rails to use with them.

will dc2r recaro sr3 rails bolt up to the side mount brackets?
or do i use something else like bride RO rails?

Buddy club rails work well, PCI work well but don't have sliders. You could also buy the sparco brackets and sliders to bolt to the recaro side rails. If you go that route pm me, I have a new set I'd let go for cheap.

Buddy club rails are sooooo awful.

Personally I have never used them. Why do you say that? Too much movement?

You can use Mugen, Bride, etc.

The welds commonly break (atleast on S2000 rails). Ironically, I had read about people breaking their welds, and I removed my seats to check. The rear attachment point weld was busted. I'm not a big guy...5'11, 165-170LBS. It's not like I weigh 300lbs and jump into my seat from the 2nd floor.

I had both rails re-welded solid. The problem is that buddy club only spot welds on one point to join the attachment points. The sliders are constantly coming loose, so the seat jiggles, and inspite of that.... the sliders have way too much resistance when you try to move them.

Good to know for future reference.

Bride has two types of rails. Ones meant for bottom mount seats and ones meant for side mount seats. SPG's are side mount. You might need to modify those Recaro side plates to mount on Bride rails. By modify I mean use a dremel and cut out a small section.

You can also use the supplied side brackets that come with the Bride rails, which essentially look like little L brackets with holes drilled in them.

just tried my friends PCI rails, the seats sit off centre about an inch towards the door, will try flipping the brackets around to hopefully gain more clearance so i can slide the seat in towards the middle of the car.

does any1 know if buddyclub rails sit the seat perfectly centered in a dc2?

Mugen won't work with the wider Recaro seats.


I have owned two sets of Buddy Club rails, no issues.

Cheers Luke! Seems like buddy club rails are the way to go

when I had aftermarket Recaro seats in my car, I used Sparco 400SB018R/L part number mounts with standard universal Recaro sliders. Easypeasy.
