Default Bride seat fitment

I have been doing a lot of research for some customers who have been inquiring about aftermarket seats, and just for information purposes, I will post what I've found thus far.

My findings only apply to Brides.

I've talked to a good amount of s2k owners with aftermarket seats, and of the ones that have Bride Zeta IIIs (including Mike@Bulletproof), they have all noted fitment issues. They complain about rubbing of the wings on the door, and also sliding adjustability is blocked by the center console.

So I have found a solution! Introducing the Vios III by Bride:


I have confirmed with a customer that the Vios III will indeed fit in the s2000 without any problems, and it still maintains all seat functionality with no fitment issues (He has one in his car). This is a great option for those who want the great look and holding capabilities of the Zetas, but want them to fit in their s2k!

I just wanted to pass along these findings because I know noone wants to have improperly fitted seats. Oh yeah, the price of the Vios IIIs and the Zeta IIIs are roughly the same too!

Hey Colin, this is the guy you talked to on the phone that confirmed fitment. I have them on both sides. No rubbing.

I will mention that I have Bride LF rails, and I had to adjust the seats towards the outside of the car on both sides so the center console would open without rubbing. There is still about 1 cm of space before they would rub with the door panels on each side.

I will mention that I have an AP2, which supposedly has more shoulder room. I can't confirm fitment on an AP1.
