I have a pair of seats (including the rails) from a Porsche 944 that I would like to install in my '93 S13 coupe. Does anyone know of a manufacturer of suitable seat adapters? I'm guessing I will probably have to do some custom fabrication.

Thanks.

Yeah Im thinking you're going to have to do all the fabricating yourself. There certinaly isn't going to be a premade bracket that would fit, your best bet would be to get a bracket that fits and then modify it to accept the porsche rails, Good luck and pics if it works

It's probably just going to be easier to either drill the holes and run bolts, or to take a piece of billet, drill some holes and tap them. This is an easy adaptor to make.

Thanks for the replies. It looks like some are using brackets with custom mounting hole locations, made by Wedge Engineering:

yeah thats the company I was thinking...make sure to post pics here if you do it. 944 seats are pretty good, but a bucket may hold better and be cheaper.
