WTFF?! +08 Bride Seats

Hey i-club!
I just got a sweetttt BRIDE Zeta III Bucket Seat (:

I traded my Valentine ONE radar plus alil cash to get a great steal on this seat.

Unfortunately I can't use the seat because I don't think Bride made Seat rails for bucket seats in the +08 STi.

Does anybody know where I can buy the seat rails or rails that fit the Zeta III bucket seat for the 2008 STi?!!!

If Im not mistaken all WRXs use the same rails you can get like the low rise Buddy Club Ones or the Sparco ones.

Thanks bro. I talked to RallySportDirect and they are going to email BRIDE and SpeedElement is calling me tomorrow about this. If Bride didn't make a dam bucket base for the STi 2008... that is plan stupid. The only thing close for the +08 is the reclinable rails

They make rails for +08. I know CVR used to have it, maybe they still do? Just don't order from them since they went under.

Future reference for any 08 users. There is no such thing as a Bucket Seat Rail. I did my research for the past few weeks. You would have to make a custom rail. Custom rails can go well over $300. Money might as well be spent on something else.

If you plan on buying a bucket seat for +08. Don't! Reclinables ONLY!!!

(: looking out!

I am going to buy them through RallySportDirect along with the Prova Steering wheel, INGS grill and maybe a Cosworth CAI. I am trying to see if I can get a discount for ordering all that stuff. I think they are retailing for 1300 for the fiberglass and 1700 for the CF. I am not sure which to get yet.

I talked to Jason at Treble and he told me the CF is 11lbs lighter that the Fiberglass. But very cool swong so you paid like an arem and a leg for them eh?

Too bad CVR tanked otherwise I would have Mazioras.
