PLANTED/ OMP aftermarket seat brackets

[Dj Buttchug]

I want to know if anyone here is using these. Do they work well for fitting aftermarket seats?

sacked up and tried them. They work great and they are beefy. spot on fitment and quality steel.

I had that setup before with my Status bucket seats. The planted floor mounts are awesome and sturdy. The OMP sliders are pretty much like any other sliders.

Interesting. I have to start hunting, even with my e36 seats full down, and Kadunza brackets, I don't have enough room to fit in car. Slicktop and the lowest mounting seat option for 42"+ waist, here I come.

That might be BraveUlysses, I think he had 1 for sale.
I have them in my race car, very good quality.

fwiw,i think they are too tall for my application and I'd like it to be lower.

Approved for racing by what sanction body? Or just a race type?

Yup, that's my ad.

Think that link died so here's a new one:

I run them in 3 of the PRO3s we've built and I have seen them in lots of others we maintain. They are legal in ICSCC, SCCA and NASA. Great quality.

Now I just wish someone would make a slider that is worth a damn.

Are the E36 seats any lower than e30 sport seats?
I'm 6'3 and in the iS with the seat all the way down, my head is ~1/4" from the sunroof cartridge. My slicktop iX has some shitty old bottom mount Cobra fixed backs hard mounted to the floor(happens to be the perfect spot), and I have ~8" to the roof.

these brackets are pretty low. Ive ran e36 seats in an e30 and they seem a bit lower as well. I would say 1/2 inch maybe 3/4 at most. it is noticeable.
