    Bypassing factory airbags in a road car is illegal, and just plain stupid.

    very nice seats, but unless you have a track car only, its also illegal

    im sure there are rails out there, but not worth the effort if its a road car

    You can still put them in a car without side airbags, I would nearly buy a car just to install those seats

    They are actually very comfortable... I'm a big fan of these type of seats and would love to install them for track.

    For track I have seen WRX seats in a MPS, no prob.

    Obviously the old resistor in the airbag sensor (don't ask me what size ect, no idea) and custom rails and they work no prob. Also seen this for aftermarket steering wheels but again airbag bypassing is baaaaaaaaad

    if its a dedicated track car, then you would be stripping all that stuff out, adding roll cage and a 5pt harness. who needs airbags when you have a helmet and strapped into the seat. it'll probably be a hindrance getting out of the car if the airbags deployed on a track lol

    Just as a reference, Kax's TOT SP25 now has Bride seats and i'm currently still deciding to go with a set as well or not. I keep sliding around. But yes, been in an evo9 recaros before and they are quite comfortable. Somehow i really think the MPS's shoulda came with optional recaros like they did with mx5 limited editions.

    I really agree with you I seem to slide around still in the stock mps seats. Should have came with recaros in the first place in these type of cars even integras, civics have them stock.
    Hahhaha bankai I'll let you know if I let these go as I hear they are rare.
