MOTORSPORTWEBSHOP | SPARCO
The Sparco Universal Seat Subframe provides a height-adjustment mechanism for installations using removable original seat slides. It is designed for a distance between the slides of up to 430 mm.
Product overview
The key requirement is the original seat-slide arrangement. Sparco specifies this mechanism for cars where the slides can be removed from the original seat, with a maximum distance of 430 mm between them. Check those conditions before selecting the base; the word universal does not mean every vehicle is compatible.

Compatibility & installation
Measure the original slide arrangement and verify that the slides are removable. Confirm the seat-to-base and base-to-slide connections using Sparco's current instructions. Check the resulting height, headroom and access to the controls before completing the installation.
Plan the rest of your installation with our seat brackets and mounts, seat sliders and racing seats. Select parts by their verified interfaces rather than their appearance.
