ok, and it wasnt necessary to cut something out the center console?

do you have leather seats or cloth/drapery?

thanks

THey should fit fine. The only thing that will determine the fitment is whether you can find the bottom bracket. Also whether the shoulder supports will hit the pillers. I have a sparco EVo in my 8 and i love it!!! No sliders *****!

If you want sliders I would recommend the Bride FG rails. Very nice, sitting about 2" lower than stock with Sparco Pro2000. No mods or cutting to any part of the interior. They are rock solid, no movement. Only downfall is weight, they are 9 lbs. Aspec can get them, ask for Francis.

The FG rails are mounts (to chassis)/sliders/side mounts (to seats) all in one piece. Their total weight is 9lbs. My Pro2000 is 19 lbs. So total weight for both is 28 lbs, stock seat is 37.5 lbs.

I attached a few pics of the rails and seat.
