Default Can anyone Identify my seat rails?

My left seat (US driver's side) sits a lot higher than my right seat (JDM driver's side). I think when these seats where in JDM land the right seat got a new rail to lower the ride height. I like the lower height on the right seat, not on the left.

Now my question is, can anyone identify which seat has the OEM rail, and which seat has the aftermarket rail? And where can I buy another rail to match the right seat's lower height?

I also noticed that the left rail (USDM driver's side) has 2 bolts running along the top while the lower right seat (JDM driver's side) has 3.

The lower seat has the jdm OE rail.

The other rail should be a recaro regular rail.

Looks like one is CTR(the higher one) and the other is ITR.

Vision makes some rails that are lower then the JDM ITR ones.

also..upon looking at your pics even more closely..I can tell you ..that you have TWO passenger side seats (for jdm rhd cars that is) considering..how your recaro reclineable adjuster *****..are ..there suppost to be both on the inner side of the seat. No wonder why you seats are in such great condition

yup, 2 JDM passenger seats
might be from two different R's (ie one ITR passenger, one CTR passenger) and they swapped rails to make it look like passenger/driver?

You are correct, and the higher rail does look like a CTR rail now that I think about it.

But if it is, then it's not going to fit in a ITR...

Okay. So you guys are saying the lower seat (the one with 3 bolts) is the JDM OEM rail right?

So where can I find another one of these?

JDM ITR VS CTR Recaro in these pictures!

I got ripped 2yrs ago ended up with CTR set and the rear inner hole does not align in my R seat mounting hole and seat sat much higher the OEM USDM R seats. When u fold seat forward, the seat hits the celling.
Sold the CTR set and found proper ITR seat and bolts on just Perfect and lowered to original height!!
Someone sold u a mixed set ! Good luck tracking them down to get u the missing seat!

Well I really don't mind having mismatched seats because they are in PERFECT condition!

I just have to look for 1 OEM JDM rail!

No because I have 2 perfect condition seats, rather than a busted *** driver's seat.
