hey i bought a pair of recaro replicas from BMI (i am a low-baller uni student), and am now looking for rails. do i need the bride/bride style rails, or recaro rails? cheers

this isnt civic specific i guess. but you need eg rails.
i think bride ones work fine.

hmm didnt know the bride seats mount the same.
you can use the stock dc2r recaro rails which fit into eg, but with some replica recaros they seem to sit alittle high, so ppl tend to use vision superlow rails.

and it depends on the base of the seat, where they need to bolt up.
my old recaro replica i needed to customise my standard rails - for that i mean cut the rails of standard seats, bolt them in the car then weld bars that goes across and drills holes through them. with that i bolt them to the seats.
