How much weight savings will you see from the seats? The problem I saw with Sparco was the weight of the brackets and sliders, they just about eat up all the savings from the seats. nice seats, they look awesome.

i had sidebag experts look at the car all they did was put a resistor in the stock airbag harness to fool the system into thinking that the side airbags are still present.
its not the weight savings that you pay for with Brides especially with mine because they are the reclinable version (Brix Series) they are heavier than the non-reclinable one peice Brides. You end up paying for the quality of the seats. I tried sitting on them and there is no way you'll go anywhere with these seats. They hug the passenger in every direction possible. With that in mind the seats are not too forgiving im guessing if youre over 200lbs there is no way you'll fit in Bride Seats
and yeah these seats are somewhat lighter than the stock track seats silders, brackets and everything.
more pics to come later!

that is by far the coolest **** to date! LOL
i am sooooo looking forward to full details on this kit! quick question though, what range to think we're talking to buy it? I was looking at the other thread of the guy that never finished his yet and they are talking in the $2k range??? To me that seems way high considering this in only a new hinge right??? or am i missing something here?

All kidding aside: I was checking out the pictures again, and that red engine interior really looks nice. I hope you'll be presenting your car at shows so people will at least recognize your coornidating skillz then...
What else do you have in your bag of tricks after the Brides?

[i]One question, though. It looks like the doors form an angle, like a "V" when they're fully open. [/B]
Yeah, why the "V" formation? Any Advantage?
Why not just make them go straight up after the 8" horizontal slide?
