Go to his site, since he's not a vendor he is not allowed to promote products or vend here.

I purchased a set of brackets for the driver side not too long ago.

Purchased a drivers side set a earlier this year, pretty straight forward install. Like others have mentioned that ~1in+ of drop makes a pretty huge difference. Hard to imagine the original stock height after having it for a bit now.

Ordered driver's and passenger's set, installed yesterday! Feels great! Followed the "how to", had no problems at all. Thanks a lot! Ordered from a far far away Russian Federation)

Reviving what possibly maybe a dead thread, is he still doing these? Has anyone bought any recently? 6' tall doesn't really help on this standard recaro height, and I don't wanna spend $2000+ on a pair of new seats....

Just go to his site. I got mine last year off of there with no issues. Great investment.

Price is $14 shipped for one, or $24 shipped for two.



I've just installed this kit on both side but I can't get my harness bolt to fit even if trying to make clearance... Jared doesn't have anymore those eyelet, does anyone know where I could fine some ?

Thanks but how to be sure about the thread ? I want to screw it in the original location under the arm rest as Jared proposed.
Does anyone know the thread of this bolt ?

I found on this thread it should be M10x1.25
https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...locations.html

Now just can't find any eyelet in this thread, did someone use this spot to fit an eyelet ? And how you did ?

Making sure photobucket didn't kill this thread, my posts seem ok, not sure if that will change, hopefully not.

I stopped making eyelets long ago. It was too hard.
