ok so on an impulse buy i bought some brides off a friend. the sliders that are on it are almost 100% most likely either universal or for something other than my car.

-for the universal sliders, do you just drill new holes in your floor?
-and how many of you guys wear the factory seatbelt with the seats instead of buying a harness?

 

anybody....?

 

Ok, do they have bride sliders?

 

I didnt like the idea of harnesses, so I always just used my stock belts...If harnesses arent used correctly, they can do almost more harm than good in an accident...

 

well it has 1 slider on it...the other one he misplaced....its lookin like im gonna haveta buy new sliders anyway.......so therefore i can use the existing holes.....so i guess i just wanna know if the harnesses are used alot or if the factory seat belt is

 

Im using factory seat belts.. Throw the harnesses only on track days.. You will need a harness bar though or rollcage.. obviously..

Also, if you are using the 350z Z33 bride brackets/sliders you will be using the oem seat holes.. no drilling just bolt on.. check Leemik threads he has one of bride install.. should make it easier.. The install is easy though..

 

I have harnesses but i use the factory belts on the street..

 

Holy shiet.. speaking of the devil!! Wassup Leemik..

 

ok cool.....thanks guys

 

Funny thats how I aquired my bride seats. F*cking impulse buys.

 

lol...tell me about it....but i got mine from someone who had NO idea what he had and therefore.....i got a good deal

but i have another ? now......both seats have sliders.....only one has the bracket which isnt for my car..so all i need is 2 brackets and hardware and im fine right?

also....can i use a different brand of bracket?, will they work with the sliders i have? and what will i have to do.....just drill new mounting holes?

thanks in advance

 

Seriously just save yourself the trouble and buy Bride sliders.

 

well i have the bride sliders.....just not the brackets.....i just need mounting points from the original holes.....so i didnt know if any bracket would be fine and if i need to just drill out the holes

 

Ya might call or PM. Adam at Z1, I believe they sell bride and he can probably give you a better answer than us. When I bought mine used fortunately they had the correct sliders.

 

Why don't you just call Bride directly...or the master distributor anyways? Lot USA in Torrance, CA

 

well to save time....i thought it would be easier to ask people who may have done this before.....im assuming the bracket brand doesnt matter other than the height since some people choose a different brand for just that reason.....the sliders are already bride sliders and mounted to the seat base...all i need is brackets....so i guess im ok...ill just buy some and drill the holes out for the hardware

 

HOw do you know yo have Bride sliders?

Bride doesnt sell the sliders by itself. Their rail and bracket is in 1 unit and it'll have Bride tag on it also.

 

because the guy i bought it from lost one of the brackets but the slider is still in the seat base......the other bracket is still mounted to the seat....along with the 2nd bride slider

 

WHich one....



Bride doesnt sell universal sliders. Its either made specifically for your car or nothing at all.

 

they took the slider off the bracket....slider and bar to slide it backand forth is there....but no bracket to mount it to the floor
