WTB: Driver and Passenger Manual Seat Brackets

Hello all

Like and idiot I sold my seats with the sliders not realizing I would need them to install my Recaro race seats. If anybody has one or both they are looking to unload please let me know! Happy New Year!

Sorry about this but its all about timing...
I had two sitting in my garage for over a year and finally tossed them in the dumpster. I would have loved to give them to you.

What seats? Do you have side brackets already. I have a big pile of side mounts, sliders, and 9x6 floor adapters, I can probably hook you up with either sliders or direct floor mounting.

If woody has any OEM sliders for sale that is a good route to to go as well, but they require side brackets with a cutout (like the Brey Krause side brackets) since the OEM slider mechanism sticks up.

OEM sliders let you slide back a tiny bit more than recaro type sliders, and the OEM sliders are around 1/2" to 3/4" higher. For max headroom, non eom sliders are the way to go. For max legroom, OEM sliders (although you can mount the side mount to the slider in different spots to favor short or tall legroom). For max head and legroom, floor mounting. My driver seat is floor mount, pax is on recaro sliders.

Edit: My notes are for HPDE driving, if you are club racing then you may be restricted to Fia or other certified combinations of mounts and sliders. I think that I one reason OEM sliders are popular for that, since they are OEM.porsche.

I need the stock sliders to attach the side brackets on. I have not purchased anything yet but I did realize I need the stock sliders. For now this will be a DE car
