yes, sometimes I need to drink, even in the car ;-)

the new SPARCO seat including the BRIDE seat rails and nuts, washers, etc. weight about 30pounds compared to 41pounds for the stock seat assembly.

So if both are swapped you save over 20 pounds sparco vs. stock.

the main reason for the swap is that the stock seat doesnt do any good at the track. Even the GTI seat in my parents VW Golf give better side support.

the stock belt can be used no problem as the BRIDE seat rails feature a mounting point for the stock harness lock. But I will get a harness bar soon together with some 4point SPARCO 3" harnesses.

the seat position is about the same as the original seat in the lowest setting. There is no way you go any lower than stock at least when you use bucket seats with side mounts. Maybe the BRIDE low max would be a little lower, but those were far too small for me so I had to get the bigger EVOs.
