Default 2000 Honda Accord + Recaro SRD seats

I just picked up a set of SRD's out of my friends RSX-S. 3 of the 4 holes line up, but there's one hole on the stock seat that bolts into the base of the center console. on the recaro bracket, that hole bolts into the floor. does anybody have any aftermarket racing seats in here? what brackets did you use? or did you just drill a hole in the floor?

You're better off ordering a custom made aluminum or steel bracket. Measure it and draw it up

I'm jealous, I'm a fat-ass (38) ain't no way in hell would my @$$ would fit in any SRD seats.

It's the main reason I don't have aftermarket seats, my @$$ ain't asain I guess.

I've had buddies with Civics and Recaro's seats, never been able to go for a ride in their Civics.

i need the seats. the stock seats offer no support, and sit up too high. i'm 6'4" about 185lbs, and these fit a lot better. it's a pain in the ass to have to open the moonroof and have my dead stick out of it when i have to wear a helmet to race. almost bad as the bruises i get on my knees from bracing myself during a hard corner lol i'm ordering the sparco brackets tomorrow. should be here in about 2 weeks

"b-r-i-d" or "b-r-eye-d"
