Listen to this guy, don't put more miles on your EVO without lowering brackets! Still have a couple sets left in stock.

I would be all over these if it was not $230. Lower the price and I'm in. I dont see paying that much for a few pieces of metal. $50 per seat and I'm in. They look great though, i just wish it was less $$

Obviously the price reflects more than simply the material cost. The price reflects the overall solution to the problem of the stock seats being too high. For about $100 a seat you can fix that. There's significant development behind the parts, overhead for the business including being a vendor on this site etc. The only other options are new seats, which are MUCH more expensive, or HKS rails which are more than double the cost and are special order from Japan.

There are countless reviews saying that the brackets have been THE BEST money spent on evo mods. But I understand where you're coming from.

Thumbs up another +1 for these brackets

got mine installed today, wow! very happy. This is one of those upgrades that I had been on the fence about, and now I'm kicking myself that I didn't do it sooner.

If you're on the fence, don't be: get off your a** and get these brackets! Without a doubt the best bang for the buck upgrade you can make!

thanks Jared!!

Another recent review.

Thanks man!
