Default how-to* Lowering my seats.

well I ve done some research and found that vision makes a low rise seat rail.
Will those mount to my stock seats?

Also, I think I read a thread, few months before I purchased my S about a mod you can do to lower the stock seats, ANy mods I can do to my stock sliders/brackets? Or do I have to buy after market ones?

Thanks, from a new S2 owner. Pics coming tonight.

Mike

I picked up the BYS seat rail from bulletproof for the drivers seat. I'm glad I got it. I'm 6 feet tall and I can now see traffic lights when I'm at the front of the line without having to duck my head down. It was definitely worth the money for me.
