Hi everybody!

i bought a Sparco EVO 2 seat a few days ago and some rails from JDMyard... but now i've realised that this seat is an extra-large... and i'm in need of different brackets. They wouldn't fit today - and i need an extra 3-5 cm width for the seat to fit.

So my questions are:
1) If i decide to do some DIY myself, what could it involve?
2) Where/how much is custom fabrication for seat brackets alone for 1 seat?

Thanks in advance!

All u need is to fab up some new L-brackets to the correct dimensions and drill holes for the mounting of the rail and seat.

But bear in mind, u will need some thick brackets, 2- 3mm SS or mild steel brackets at best to be safe, any thinner ur compromising ur safety, as all ur weight is pushing down on these brackets, an in the event of a accident u wouldnt want these brackets to buckle.
