Hey all, thought I'd do a little write-up on Wedge Seat Brackets and my install process/experience. The seats are used Sparcos, don't remember the name but the cheaper fixed-backed ones. I'll start with a general overview of my experiences with the company.
Customer service: It was great, handled the international shipping no problem and contacted me regarding the exact measurements of my seats.
Brackets: Upon receiving the brackets, they look great. I bought a slider for the driver side and it came pre-assembled ready to bolt the seats on. Really nice wrinkle finish on them and all the necessary brackets to get your stock seat belts on.
Install (and photos): When I went to install the seats, the driver side bolted right up to the slider absolutely no issue. I used 12.9 grade 8mm Allen Bolts 3/4" long. The slider uses oval mounting holes to let you postition your seat accurately.
And the finished product:
Then our first issue: I did not order passenger-side sliders and instead gave Wedge my seat measurements. Their drilling was close, but not quite. So I used a manual mill at work...
... to oval those ones out too.
Then I installed the stock seatbelt hardware:
And now the final product!
Seats feel so much better than stockers, they hug your ass like a priest does a little boys. They have a lower driving position for sure, but you can see everything and reach anything you'd need to. Overall, I am definitely pleased. Good product, relatively easy install and great once installed.
