Those look like SR4 Recaros, same ones in the DC5. You might want to confirm if they are though.

If they are, research what rails you need for SR4's to fit your FD.

If there's aren't any, you can make some fixed rails yourself to install them in your car. Just google that.

Or, fabricate some brackets to attach the existing rails to the mounting points in your FD.

EVO's use the Recaro SR range. those seats are SR5's and will fit on the Bride RO and MO rail.
SR5 because the center cushion is rounded SR4 and 3 are square lumbar cushions.
but i would go for RO over MO (they are the same except the MO comes with adaptor plates to fit more bride seats).
these seats have the screws hold them down from the bottom and hence fit RO rails.

thanks guys, googled 'evo sr5s' and some examples came up with the one i mentioned.

i'll prob keep searching on seats as i confirmed with seller they were sold=(

i guess i gotta buy brides RO since evo recaros are SR series =)


thanks again

yep!

also the recaros in integra type Rs are sr3 in the dc2r and sr4 in the dc5r so they will fit with bride RO.
and yeh the mitsubishi colt ralliart came with recaros too, which are SR series.

WRX seats wont work. but u could always buy an actual bride seat! bit expensive tho
