Seat height on these seats in an EG?
My question is regarding seat height once they're mounted. My car is going to have a full cage and I'm going to have to wear a helmet. If these would sit any higher than a stock seat, they probably won't do the trick. I like the seats and I've found a good deal on them, I just don't want to risk them sitting too high in the car. I have Del Sol seats in it right now. My other option (and a cheaper option at that) is a set of black S2000 seats which I know sit lower than stock once mounted. They're going into an EG hatch.

GSR(blk leather) seats are amazing on ride height. I have em in my coupe and my bro had some in his eg. They also looked amazing in his hatch. They sit you real low, and a plus you do not have to fabricate ****. Direct bolt in.

I saw these on ForumsHawaii. I had a red DC5 pair with OEM DC2 rails in my hatch and they sat way high. Higher than stock, much higher than my Del Sols. With these seats, I had to reach too far foward and down to shift. It was uncomfortable.
Not bad for $1000. I'd pick them up for the price, but wouldn't match anything.

^^^ that was my concern.
And not for comfort. The car is getting a full cage and going to be worn only with a helmet. If they sit higher than stock seats, my helmet will hit the cage.
The price is right though and blue is what I wanted to find (I'm doing a wht/blu thing instead of the normal wht/red) Does Recaro or anybody else make a rail for these seats that mount it lower?

Vision makes one-touch sliders that supposedly drops the height. I don't know how much they compare to OEM rails. JHPUSA.com sells them.
