Okay, I might be getting a bucket (well, recline-able) seat soon and am going to need to pick a set of brackets. I want them to sit about as high as oem. I don't want to be sitting really low. I'm about 5' 8" and probably won't get but an inch or two taller than that in a few years.

Looking for suggestions here. I've never bought seat rails before, but I know the Buddy Club ones are decently priced, but I hear they sit really low like this....

^ I'm not looking to do that. Sorry Teddy, lol.

But yeah, looking for brackets that sit at about oem height. Thanks.

I'm assuming those sit really low.

Nice try though.

I am not a fabricator Ant, nor do I know how to weld. Unless I can make something out of wood, I see no seat bracket making in my future lol.
