I'm thinking of fitting a pair of Recaro seats to my car, but I'm not really sure where to obtain the brackets to mount them.

I've found out from elsewhere that I need a set of Recaro sliders for aftermarket-model seats to fit to the underside of the seats, but I don't know where I would source the brackets to fit the seats and sliders to the floor of the car (seat --> slider --> bracket --> floor).

There's a US company called Wedge Engineering that specialises in such things, but I think that would be an expensive way of doing it. Is there anyone in the UK that i could contact? Either a company that fabricate them or sell pre-made brackets?

I'm not sure if I should have posted this here or a more specific forum, but Mods can feel free to move it to somewhere more relevant if need be.

Have a look at Demon Tweeks's website.

Thanks for that, Demon Tweeks never ocurred to me for some reaon. I can't see most of that page (crap phone internet) but i'll have a look later.

Any other ideas?

Is the bottom bracket car-specific? I don't know if the car might be a bit oddball for an off the shelf bracket, what with it being an old-ish import (1990 Integra)?

They are car specific, though you can buy 'Universal' ones - have a look when you are next on the computer (Not phone) to see if there is anything useful - my knowledge is a little rusty on them i'm afraid - it's been 10+ years since I used to sell them!
