    Racing Seat Brackets/Sliders (Vendors Chime In)

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    For those of you using fixed-back racing seats. What are you guys using for sliders and brackets? I have my Bride seats with Recaro tall mounts to attach them to the sliders, but I am not sure which bracket/sliders to get.

    It seems like Recaro doesn't make one that fits the B5 S4. A4 ones are a different setup. Some say the A4 manual ones work, some say they require some welding. I really want a plug and play application. So far it has been pretty good.

    Wedge Engineering, do it?

    90 bucks a pop, wedge engineering, do it. No ifs, ands, or buts.

    I have Recaro Pole Postions in my B5 and I have Recaro side mounts and subframes, I'm in the UK though ordered direct from Germany. Although I don't see why you couldn't get them in the US if they make em here.

    I was hoping you'd chime in! Yeah, as far as I know Recaro doesn't distribute them to the U.S. At least that is what I have been told.

    I already had sliders, so that was without.. Give them a call, they're pretty straight up. I'm sure they could even make you sliders or point you in the right direction, if you need. All they are going to ask are the measurements of your reccy tall boy hole spread.

    I have a sparco evo 2 seat that is bolted to their base and slider set. It has work good for almost a year now. the only thing that I had to do was make a support bar for the base so it didn't have so much flex.

    It looks like he probably did the DIY brushed aluminum conversion to the wood. It's kinda hard to do to the shift surround.
