Yes, they’re hard mounted as I’m the only driver And I wanted proper positioning and maximum lowering. It helps that these seats are so narrow so there is room to move them around to fit.

Thanks for the review. I also have one waiting to go in once my car is back from the fabricator. I also had positive experience with him during the purchasing process.

Realize it might be a long shot but figured worth asking. Looking to see if anyone has a Bikini Top for sale. Black and compatible with hard dog M2 roll bar.
Thanks!
Thanks! It’s hard to make an apples to apples comparison as spring rates were different between the two: 550/350 for Fox and 300/200 for XIDA’s. Where I live (SF Bay Area) back roads are utter crap...

No for now I just left them as-is and will let them self clear. Driver's side closes OK but passenger side needs a firmer push/pull (didn't take the time to readjust the hinges after I put on the...
I've recently installed on of those door latches from Ken Auto and I must say I'm impressed. Takes a few minutes/side to install and car feels more composed. Took only 3 days to arrive from Japan...
Very helpful, thanks a lot!
I received mine today (took about 10 days to receive). One question: I don't see any provisions for hog rings/zip-ties. There are no holes on the outside and for the inside there is a rigid...
