Default Bucket seats on std rail

Hello guys,

Did anyone fitted bucket seats in there escort? I tried to fit mine on the std rail, but i think the seats are to high in the car now. I haven't fit my steeringwheel and dash so it's hard to deside now if it's to high or not.

Could you show some pics of the bucket seats in your cars?

Cheers!

ecu mounted

Just waiting on the other seat side mounts then the drivers seat can go in.Not long now

Ok i found these photo's and thats about the same as i have got them. I got a question. When you take the std rail there is a spring and the mechanism on top of that. So i raised the side mounts so they won't hit them, but that raised your seat hight also.

It looks like you solved this problem in a other way. Could you show me how you solved that?
