I am 6'2" 240lbs so I will need a larger seat.

I have been known to have a keen sense for the obvious

If you go this route, go with the BRIDE FO bottom mount ( slider and bottom mount in one peice, VERY NICE ) with Recaro Side mounts and the seat. This thing is VERY NICE.




****ty pics but you get the idea. Hope that helps Jarrod. You should talk to Nick, I've been talking about this with him for days now . I still need to get Nick the measurements, barely have time!

LOL j/k

With your size you have quite a few choices. Especially the Bride seats depending on your budget. They are perfect for smaller people.

JROD,

I have a seat for you setting in my garage. Did you say it would be OK to lose the sliders, or no?? If you can get by with a direct mount check out this seat:

http://www.racetechseatsna.com/race_seats/RT9009.html

It is the RT-4009. It is taller so the shoulder straps are at the right level, and it's pretty wide. I wear 40" size pants and this would be OK for me for anything under 1hour of driving. I think it would be perfect for you. It has real memory foam padding. I was going to run it solid mount this year, but I have a shorter co-driver for the season so I had to retain my sliders. It may be possible to fit this with the proper sliders, but it won't fit with Buddy Club sliders. The head restraint hits the top of the B-pillar . . .

It's an expensive seat, but I could work out a good deal for you !!

Jarrod H.

but on a serious note, i have no idea about bride, but they seem incredibly pricey.

i wish recaros made spg's a little smaller. any suggestions for bride seats that are competitively priced with spgs?
