Recaro Type - R seats

[G-Ammo]

Hey! I ordered some Recaro Type - R seats for my 2009 3 door Yaris.

I was wondering if it's possible to fit the universal sliders on the original brackets?

Or does anyone know where I can get universal brackets to fit the seats in?

I already contacted MicroImage and they said they probably have those brackets to fit universal sliders... but after that the conversation died and I haven't heard from them in 2 weeks :(

Would love to hear some tips or to show me some links to buy them!

thank you!

garm (cali yaris) from Microimage is here on this forum too, so chances are he'll be able to read this thread too.

re the topic, i googled some and how bout this?

I already found one from Weapon R... I emailed the company how much itll cost to ship it to holland / belgium :) I hope I'll get an answer soon.

Cant find any brackets on that site to be honest... not for the yaris i think :O... well... the sparco ones, but they're quite expencive...

Do your Recaros have some form of a frame to them? I have sold a couple of sets of OEM seat rails (which easily unbolt from the bottom of stock seats) to people for mounting aftermarket seats to.

This is what they look like when removed from the seats:

Wait. You can use stock sliders with raceseat that has rails? I gotta try this.

Yeah dude, I took my corbeau seat and bought a solid steel bar and bolted the seat to it and then drilled holes to bolt to the stock sliders.!:headbang:

Just tried to keep it simple. My racetech bracket doesn't line up with stock slider bolts. So much for the easy way.

the seats have universal sliders on them :o...

But I hope that I can get those Weapon R brackets... but the companies haven't emailed back yet :( does anyone know where I can buy those on other sites?

Kinda dumb of me, but i cant get to the nuts on the driver seat to remove the slider. I got the left hand side (side with the recliner lever but not the right side) what's the torx size for the bolts

I ordered my brackets from the wedge engineering before to match my recaro slider and seats, and they also comes with the adjustable height

[G-Ammo]

vten... nice! but quick question... they only give you the brackets right? not the sliders on them? because the sliders are already on my seats :)

so when filling in the ''options'' on the site... I have to select: ''no sliders'' option, right?

like this:

Yup , I had the recaro sliders before buying the brackets with the adjustable height .

[G-Ammo]

Alright thank you :)

[ezhacker1]

Got the OEM slider off, man this thing is heavy. 7.5lbs I reckon.

Ordered the wedge engineering brackets for the yaris! hope they'll be here soon!! its priority mail so Im guessing itll take a week or so...

so stocked! hope they fit right on the yaris!!!

Pff.. paypal is being a b*tch... the transfer has been set on a temporary hold or so called: ''Pending''... they're already making the brackets for me but they won't ship untill they get the money. Some say it'll take 3-4 days before it's complete transferring... others say 7 days or so...

God I hate when paypal does this when i really want something quickly...

[G-Ammo]

Alright..! the brackets are on their way... with International Priority :) I hopefully get them this week!
