Default Pics up: Sparco seat finally installed in 88 hatch.

Alright so i bought this project 88 hatch for cheap. When i bought the car it had no passenger side seat or rears, it had a driver seat but only right side bracket was intact and only 1 bolt was used, and to fix the unlevelness they put a BLOCK of wood under it! Wish i had a pic. LOL Anways, so its not the seats i need to worry about , its that no one makes brackets to fit racing seats in a 88/89 hatch. So i had a shop make custom brackets for my car I can get more of these brackets so PM if u need some. I only need one bucket seat, so i just got a new Sparco Speed, i used sparco sliders and the custom brackets, I also got the passenger side brackets done and now im open to put in any OEM or aftermarket seat in my ride Also the brackets bolt into the 4 OEM holes on floorboard. Comments welcomed.

My seat fits perfect like stock. i get way more then 2-3 fingers. I sit in the same spot as stock seats maybe a lil lower since my sparco's a bucket seat

Looks really great! But, Sparco makes the seat bases and they are FIA approved. Sparco seat base Tabbed requires base, 500 adapter and slider.
P/N. 500954 88-89L
P/N. 500955 88-89R
P/N. 5001010 90-91L
P/N. 5001011 90-91R

Dark Star Racing makes them also, But i`m not sure if they are FIA approved. http://www.darkstarracing.com/seatbracket.htm
