The first step to install our racing seat is to remove the factory 350z seat from it’s current position. You can see the four bolt holes from where the old seat rails are located. If you cannot figure out how to get to this take (removing your front seat) you probably shouldn’t continue this installation on your own. Our Bride Low Max VIOS III came to us from YoParts.com which is the first true wholesale club for the automotive industry. Just imagine Costco online with more car parts than you could ever order from one website.

With a couple bolts you will have the adjustable Bride seat rail attached to your Low Max VIOS III seat. The new “Low Max” design is optimized for the lowest possible setting a seat and seat rail combination can currently offer and also have the steering wheel centered to the driver.

Here is a shot of the Bride seat and rail sitting just outside the car before installation. The low setting I touched on above in the 350z is key unless your a male under five feet nothing. Especially if you plan on needing a helmet the roof line will find your head very very fast.

Here is the Bride seat sitting inside the Nissan 350z now. The colors flow spot on with the interior and the fitment is better than I imagined. The side bolsters hold you snug and point your arms directly to the steering wheel.

Here is the OEM bolt that we placed back on the Bride seat rail to secure it to our 350z chassis.

We also retained the factory caps from Nissan to give the seat installation a very clean look.

Each seat rail includes a small allen wrench style lever that you pull up at the same time to adjust the seat position. All and all the seat feels great (especially if I went on a diet) and it still has some adjustable rails so I really have to say this is one of the better modifications we have made to date with the Nissan 350z. Thanks again to YoParts.com for the Bride seats!
