I am going to post pics installed when i ll get the car from the exterior jobs and then install all the interior things i am doing right now..At this moment inside the car there is only the cluster gauge..NOTHING MORE!!!Everything will be totally different so keep checking..
I ll also install racing harnesses but i won't install them in a way that it will be difficult for someone to sit in the rear seats...

thanks, but I'll probably custom make my own rails too
I have a set of Recaro Pole Position seats that I can't find any rails spaced wide enough for them to sit as low as I want. Bride has a couple that look like they may work, but I can't get dimensions for them. Their Low Max LR or LF model looks like it might meet my needs:

Then when I noticed there were some quality control issues upon opening the Recaro box I immediately got the run around. Search Braille in the GoodGuy/BadGuy forum, somebody else called them on it there. Unfortunately this wasn't known back when I fell for the bling-bling marketing.I'm surprised that anyone would make a custom rail for the Bride Gias seat. The Bride LowMax rail set for the RX-8 is the lowest, best quality rail on the market and is made for this seat.

For reference, a Wedge Engineering racing seat mount with sliders for aftermarket racing seat installations weighs about 12 lb. Mazda really did their homework well on the OE seats
Man, the seats were going to be my next weight saving mod... but if there is not that much savings in weight, why bother...
Well, I guess you just saved me a couple of grand... :D

Ditto to GrRx8MaZdA, are you gaining/loosing headroom?
