Default Mounting a bucket seat...

Ok so i bought a pair of Bride Vios buckets, didnt come with any brackets...

So just to make sure, i will need:

Side mount brackets (anyone know of any cheap side brackets? They seem crazy overpriced)
Rails
Sliders

Now i've read that a lot of companies passenger side rails are garbage... And that pretty much no matter what the passenger side seat will sit a lot higher than the driver?


I found this bride seat rail (drivers side) for sale locally for 100 bucks... will this rail work with a side mount seat?

It will probably work, but you will still need side mounts. There are a few reasonable priced sidemounts on the market, you just need to search in google

I talked to megan racing (because their mounts are half the price of everyone else) and they said they stopped selling the rails because of the passenger side problem.

Now ive heard a lot of complaints about the passenger side rail... And on the 'PLANTED' website they even say they sell a different rail for the passenger side for either standard or automatic transmission (the floor plan is different) but no other brands do this...

Does anyone know for sure which brand has rails that fit perfectly on both sides? And will work with a side mount? After a lot of googling it looks like there is no way out... I'll be paying about 350+ shipping to canada or more for rails...
