Looks good! How do they fit in the car though? I take it the seats are knock offs? I say that because the back of them are black... And I though Bride never did black backs.

 

yeap, the seats are knock offs. real Brides come in carbon kevlar.
the seats are heavier than i though, about the same weight as the stock seats.
the knock off use steel frame but i think the Bride use aluminum frame.
the fiberglass and cushing is very light, most of the weight is in the frame.

the seats fit great in the car, about 1/4" room on each side of the seat bottom. the right side solder support touch the door though. i'm have to move the seat over a little when i make the driver side bracket. i will also have to fabricate a new locking bar for the slider for the passenger side because the one came with the seats hits the floor where the hump is for the CAT.

 

Bride makes them in FRP as well but they have the sparkles or whatever. How's access to the glove box? I put some BRIX II's in my car and then took them right back out. I sat way to high and the seats were just too big for the car. OEM FTW

 

access to the glove box is fine, it's about the same dimension as the OEM seats. i love the factory seat but i need something compatible with 5-point harness and comfortable for long trips to the track. that's why i didn't get full bucket even though they would be lighter.
