    Vaders in a cabrio question

    So I got a pair of vaders siting aorund and I want ot fit it into my cabrio

    I've read the typical install on coupes and sedans, but when I try to fit the seat into the cab, it seems that the cab is even more narrower than the coupe or sedan, and the seat barely wedge in there.

    I dont want to not be able to slide the seat, any ideas?

    That seat is way to wide for the cabs. I tried fitting a manual e36 sport in my cab and it jammed against the door and tranny tunnel.

          I think he has Recaro SRD copies?

            yea, he has the srd replicas from fleabay.

            I personally ahvent seen vaders in cabrios before. It seems the brackets have to be fabricated and the existing rails cut.
