This is the biggest load of crap I've seen pushed onto eBay'ers.
Tees-USA has contacted me and states that these seats are not authentic Bride seats and have not been sold through Tees. I cannot personally make any claims as to the authenticity of the seats.I was told by the seller that I bought the seats from that they were probable “backdoored” at the place of manufacturing for Bride seats, meaning that they could be the same seats that Bride produces, but made by employee and sold underground with the alcantara fabric. This is all speculation and I cannot verify this claim. I'm sure Tees will refute that statement. The seats I have in my possession are stamped with “Bride” on the knobs, have the headrest embroidered front/rear with “Bride” and have a tag sewn into the seam on the left side that is embroidered with “Bride” over the red figure of the “Holding Monster” (the bride trademark I think). The seats also bolt directly to authentic Bride seat rail (I tested them). Thats a lot of work for a "counterfit" seat. I make no claims as to the products fitness for a particular use and cannot guarantee that these seats meet the same safety standards that Bride uses for their production seats. I will let you make your own conclusions regarding this matter and the seats “authenticity” or likeness to Bride Brix II seats as distributed through Tees-USA and Tees-Japan.
