Default Spoon or buddy club "low" seat rail

Hey Im about to purchase a gsr with usdm itr seats and I noticed that the driver side seat rail is up higher than the passenger. Although it doesnt bother me all that much seeing as Im only 6 foot, I would still like to get either the spoon or buddy club "lowered" seat rail. Will either of these work with the usdm itr seats?

There aren't any lower aftermarket rails that will work with the stock seats. The ones you see are for either reclinable Recaros or hard shell seats.

Here is a picture of the seats. Again they are USDM ITR so the rails mount to the bottom of the seat not the side.

recaros use common mounting points on the bottom. USDM seats aren't recaros, so its probably likely that rails designed for recaro's won't fit

To make them sit lower you will have to custom do it.

the rails actually mount to the sides of the bottom cushion and contain the hinge and mount for the back portion. There is no rail to change as the whole thing is one integral part of the seat.
