I was wondering if anyone has fabbed up some sort of bracket for race seats.
I currently have Recaro side brackets on slides mounted to the stock locations. I would like to mount the side brackets to the stock location minus the sliders for the extra headroom. I need it to stay safely below the cage. My thought was two flat pieces of steel 1/4 inch in place of the rails then mount the side mounts to that? Should lower me a a couple inches. Any other ideas out there already in use?? |

In this car I mounted the MOMO side brackets to the Floor, with steel plates under the car. It was fixed in the position for me!
I'm 6' and you can see I have a lot of head room  |
