Default recaro seat sliders and mounting

Who's slider have you guys been using to mount recaro's in a first gen camaro? Do they make a bolt in bracket? Are the sliders made by recaro. Im concerned about the seat height and curious how you mounted yours with mods or with out. Pretty much going with the speed s.

Thanks Rich

Rich, Try to locate a damaged Mazda Rx8, the sliders on the 09 models I believe are different than the previous years which should be all the same.
They come with Recaro seats

Hey Rich,

I've got the Wedge engineering seat brackets, and they work just fine. Only minor complaint might be that some modification may be required if you want to drop the Recaros down all of the way as the seat belt bolts hit the mounting bracket on the seat if you've got it on the lowest setting. Its hard to describe, I can get you pictures this week if you like. Regardless, if you're worried about height, they still sit pretty low on the middle setting.

Matt

the recaros only come in a specific model...it may have been the WS3 package....for some reason that sounds right....however i'm probably off. just an fyi.

edit: i just checked.....it's the R3 package.
