    Recaro srd reps in need of good mounts

    I got some Recaro Srd rep and the PO did a sh**t job on the mounts (well there is no actual mount) He drilled out all 4 original screw/bolt assembly at both sides and used some shave heads bolts with differnet size of washers as well as double nut (screw form the bottom) to hold the chairs.
    I need a better solution for some decent mount. I plan to re-use these holes and repair as best as possible (i'm looking for a solid thick washer to slide it in between th emetals fof the cloor and underfloor to hace something solid once bolts put pressure on the metal)
    Any ideas?

              it's LOW, i had to lower my dash and stearing colum to accomidate...

              How do you like the lowered dash and low seats? would you prefer to just have the seats higher or do you like the low set up? I feel like it would be sweet to sit a little lower in an e30 if the dash moved too...

Has anyone ever tries putting mb 190e seats into an e30? The 190e seats r electric but im figuring i can make the electric stuff work in my e30. Any ideas/opinions?

                        This.

                        same weight but around 6'2"

                        Whats the widest seats that will fit in there? I'm thinking maybe some sparco xl's, corbeau fx1 or corbeau fx1 wides (heard that they wont fit)

                            Just ordered fx1 wides. Should be a tight squeeze but I'm going to try to make it fit. Wish me luck

                              Thinkin about selling my setup. NRG CF fixed back seats - Large size. I'm 6'1 250lbs and I fit into them fine. Come with Massive side mount adapters bolted onto factory sliders. Drivers side shoulder bolster does make contact with door panel, but doesn't interfere with function of door. If I sell looking to get $800 for complete setup.
