Default Planted seat bases

I have a set of planted seat bases that I will not be using with my seats, they are new and will fit the 6spd 350z. They cost $140 each, I am willing to let them go for $200 shipped for both. Can also sell individually for $110 shipped
Thanks for looking!

what are the length and width of the top mounting plates? not the part that bolts into the floor but where the seat bolts into the brackets.

What are the specs? I'm having issues finding something that will work with my seats without sitting super high

I'm so bad about getting back on the forums to respond, my bad haha. What seats do you have? These sit really low, especially for having sliders. The only reason I want to change is because I'm trying to go with a fixed mount seat solution so that my seat doesn't move anymore (racecar).

I've got pole positions, so I'm unsure the height difference. But I've had 6'2 people in my car with helmets and the only issue was the roll cage padding. So I'm willing to bet that you'd be fine with these depending on the height difference of our seats.

You can kind of see how the seats are positioned in the car and that there is ample room above the top of the seat.

you can have both sides of the planted bases modified at a fab shop to sit very low, obviously will be limited on the passenger side though.
My driver side sits flat to the floor after removing the locating pin and welding flat tabs back on vs bend z shaped ones. .
Nothing else sits lower than that as is when purchased, nor will sit flatter after modification.

The deciding factor about not using these was my seats protrude lower than the rails, that would require cutting the insides of the brackets or fab up a spacer to sit in between the rail and the base, I wasn't looking to do all that lol
