If you did not buy from ebay, where did you get your brackets for your racing seats? Did you make your own?

Sorry I could not answer this as fast as youd like but I DO have experience with those. Do not get them because they do not fit any seats. I initially got them with my tenzos and tenzo sliders and they did not fit at all. I couldnt even modify them to fit thats how bad they were off.

They dont fit because theres no place to make the brackets fit. If you need something and you dont wanna search around for a place that fabricates them, go to www.mmrusa.com they did mine and were expensive as crap and they didnt even fit that well but at least my seats fit their sliders.

The brackets dont give you any place to drill the sliders onto. You are more than welcome to go ahead and try those ebay ones, but im positive they wont work. I dont even know why they made those things in the first place, I dont see how any sliders could fit onto those things though. They refunded my money promptly though when I wanted my refund so it was all good.

Actually the brackets from www.mmrusa.com work really well, but like I said, they are expensive and you have to drill ONE hole to get them to fit it comes with the sliders too, but sometimes the sliders wont fit. Actually the guy said the sliders were made to fit SPARCOS, so unless you have sparcos, you are going to have to drill an extra hole.

^^ Gauge between $250-500 CND for a shop to fabricate those brackets for you. Here in Calgary I got quoted $500 for both sides. As for the ebay ones, those are sold by X3 racing. I bought a set and they worked fine, all you need to do is drill two new holes.

I have them. They fit my seats perfect and are pretty good quality. My racing seats bolted right up. You always have the option of drilling a different set of holes just if the bottom of your seat has a different pattern than the standard sizes, which the brackets already come predrilled for.
edit: and my seats came with sliders that also bolted right to those with no problem at all. (and risers so the seat sits a little higher, but its still lower than stock) I like it 10x better.
