Recaro's for the 370?

You took the words out of my mouth. I was going to tell you good job modifying to make it work, but the problem is sometimes more bracketry under the seat results in an undesireable/high seat position.

I just threw Wedge out there because I know they make tons of brackets, I didn't look to see if the 370 was on there. I know they don't frequently update that list also but it sounds like you did all the leg work.

Another place I know that makes nice laser cut brackets is here:
Speedware Motorsports

See if they have it. If not I bet they can get a customer car.

good luck, hope that helps.

yah, that is what i would need to do if i get aftermarket seats.

not sure why these j folks at nissan cant make a car to fit their kind. this is the first car im actually too short to sit in...why i cant see very well over the side mirrors.

are there any fabric seats that would match up well to the stock seats? I want to just replace the driver side.

Why did this thread die? I'd love Recaros (no apostrophe on plural, guys) but it's not like I can go to Pep boys and sit in them.
