Gias fit, zetas should aswell i think vios are fine too. Infact not many of the brides won\'t fit.

What about more common uk seats ?? Been considering the OMP RS.

although you can get some in with custom rails the seating position is horrible. Obviously a small enough seat and spending a decent amount of time fabing the rails and they\'ll be great.

Zeta WILL NOT fit. I had to sell mine and it broke my heart :( The shoulders are too wide. You either have to butcher the doorcards or the seats, or create a custom subframe which gives you a ridiculously offset and uncomfortable seating position. (can you tell i tried everything to make them fit?!?)

VIOS and GIAS will -however.
There are a fair few of the Brides that won\'t fit, including a large amount of the recliners :(

Gias are awesome !!!

How about any of the Recaros ?

Recaro Speed fit, bit tight next to door card but still fit and plus they recline

Ash have you had recaro speeds in your car? What runners do you use?

I should have an Old Skool BRIDE Recliner going in mine soon when the subframe turns up. Woohoo. BRIDE ftw!

Which one?
You may find it a VERY tight fit :(
They have very broad bases which tend to foul the transmission tunnel, and the shoulders often foul the doorcards as mentioned above :(

Cooch

I dont know! It better fit though! :(
