I cant rememer if I did this or not back in the day when the seats were installed in the car, its been about 4 months now.

So, heres some pics of them with harnesses, you can guestimate how high they sit according to the height of the seat in comparison to the steering wheel, even the seatbelt holders are there, so thats a good reference.

They do sit high on the Weapon R brackets, but I dont mind them, maybe one day I will have proper brackets ordered.

I took these pics from the passenger and drivers side. I still left the old OEM seatbelts in place, they might come out sometime in the future.

Yes I still get a stupid airbag and flashing seatbelt light. The passenger airbag in always OFF, and I plan to have a friend of mine do a resistor mod to have it placed in the ON position at all times. Not as if the harnesses wont let you hit the airbag anyway.

Remember that the Weapon R brackets dont fit any other seats than Sparco and Weapon R brands. I had mine custom modified to fit these seats.

Those seats are the bomb! Before my funds ran out last summer, I seriously looked at some aftermarket seats for my sedan. Maybe someday...

Thank you, many people have said the same thing about the match, some people even question if those come stock.

Local guy on Craigslist who was getting rid of them from his Drag truck(96 Ford Ranger). The seats were only used 4 times total, the guy just wanted them gone..

$380 for the seats
$90 for the brackets
$180ish for the harnesses

Snagged them as what I think was the best deal on parts for my car to date!

Well they are the CR1 Wide models, so they run usually $800-900, depending where you shop, just for the seats (pair). Then it comes to purchasing seat brackets and sliders.

The Weapon R brackets also fit my Bride sliders.

Hmm, good information to know ahead of time for anyone interested in getting Bride seats, another option.
