Recaro Pole Position seat rails? Vendors read!

Hello,

Do any vendors here resell rails that will fit a Recaro Pole Position seat?

I have also heard some Recaro seats fit with Bride Rails. Will the pole position fit with the Bride FG-type or FX-Type rails?

Thanks

Interested too. I have a set of SRD's that I'd like to use but they don't seem to bolt up to the stock EVO rails. What are my options?

I'm not sure about this but I think that the pole positions will require an additonal bracket, while the Recar Profi SPG should bolt right of to the FO or FG rails

I'm all set. Bride FG-Type rails did the trick.

Did you have to do anything special to get the FG rails to work because I heard that they will not fit the Pole becuase of its wide mounting size

go through aspec at 626-618-1100 and speak to francis, he worked out all the fittment issues. my car has pole positions with bride rails/sliders, it came out looking like factory ! with lots of head room.

l.i., and the seats come out slightly lower than stock, you do have other holes for adjustment. it took a very long time and i whent through all kinds of dealers claiming they knew what they were doing before i got in touch with francis. the seats are roomy,comfortable and hold you in! unlike the stock seat.
