Fell throught the person could not build them because the structure that honda has built on the ep3 seats are rivited in and welded in every possible spot. So i guess the only resonable replacement is the spoon brackets that i have heard but not yet seen. The price will more than likely be through the roof so i guess the seats stay the way they are.

Ok, after some pain and heart ache I found out that the seat rail mod is going to be a lot harder than I thought. There may have to be some cutting......

Honda engineers seemed to leave no room for modification without recreating the same exact parts they put on the seat except with the side metal bracket supports being 1 - 1.5 inches shorter. Honda welded and rivited almost every bolt and connection on the seat. So far, we were only able to take off 4 bolts without hurting the seat.

I was looking at the helms manual, and it gave like an exploded veiw of what I would be expecting.

If anybody has any ideas that can help me out, please feel free to post. I will probably endup removing almost the whole bottem section and making my own......but making supports and the custom rails/sliders will take some imagination.

I will post pics once I get a hold of a digicam.
