Default Lower seat rails for leather '98 gsr seats?

I've been looking around the internet for a while, hoping there is an aftermarket seat rail to lower my stock leather seats on '98 gsr. It appears that there aren't many options. Anyone have any ideas?

If you look at the rails and where it bolts in, there is no room to go lower bro. These seats are low as hell from the factory anyways.

Thanks for the reply, I understand. Wish there was a way to sit lower but keep leather seats, but I guess not.

Maybe you unknowingly have sedan seats in your gsr?

Leather seats have the adjustable up/down tracks. It makes them sit way high.

There may be a way to take 94-01 cloth seat tracks that DO NOT have the up/down adjustment and bolt your leather seat to them.

Try going to a junkyard and see what you can find.

You can also opt for S2000 seats...but you lose some of your reclineability. And they're semi expensive.

Maybe you can find a pair of cloth seats and swap over the leather seat covers onto them (if they fit).

Yep, 1998+ seats sit higher than 1994-1997. Del sol seats are a good cheap oem option

Thanks for all of the replies.

I like this option in bold. That would be great if it would work. Don't need the up and down adjustment.
