DC2 Recaro Seat Rail Help

[Peter_North]

I just picked up a set of DC2 Recaro seats, and I want to install them into my '96 hatch, but I've hit a snag.

The seats that I bought came with rails but, the only thing is the rear "feet" of the rails are missing. The little brackets with the bolt hole through it to mount the seat rail to the floor. They're missing on both sides.

Any input as to what I should do? I've looked around for Civic Type-R rails but they are extremely expensive. Anybody know if metal shops can maybe fab some up for cheap?

I checked out a place local to me, but I was told it would be $250 and I can't afford it right now with Christmas coming up and all. Any input is greatly appreciated.

Apparently, the seat rails off other OEM seats is different because mine are bottom mount and OEM seats are side mount rails.

I got JDM DC2 Recaros.

fab something up?

If I knew how, I would.

side mount. i dont think oem are side mount. the rails should be the same, you just have to swap the inside one i think

OEM seat mount brackets are mounted to the sides of the seat rails, whereas mine are on the bottom.
