So you need the mounting plates, AND the recaro side plates... The EAS ones look nice because they also have that bolt on plate for your lap harness.

So you bolt in the plates to your car, then the seat side plates down to the floor plate... You need to use 12.9 Socket Head Cap screw Allen Head Bolts, and make sure you get hardened steel washers for them all as well.
Ok thanks.

So explain this to me like im an idiot.

Step 1) Buy Recaro pole positions with sidemounts.

Step2) Buy VAC floor mount adaptors for Z4

Step 3) Remove oems and install VAC floor mount adaptor

Step 4) Install recaro sidemounts to VAC floor mount adaptor

Step 5) Install recaro seats to recaro sidemounts.

Then deal with airbag issues and fiancee dissaproval of race seats

Correct?

If in the end I decide to go for the cobra suzukas (or Bride Zeta III) is the above still correct?.....just substitute suzuka + suzuka sidemounts for recaros + recaro sidemounts?

Thanks again.
