Thumbs up Seat Rails

Just curious what seat rails everyone's using. I had a Bride seat in my S13 and had a Bride MO rail that was made for that chassis specifically. I wouldn't mind going with a Recaro seat this time around (or maybe another Bride), but where did you purchase them. Also, is this a universal item, ie, it's the same in all markets? Thanks in advance.

There are seat rails made specifically for this vehicle in Japan, however not sure if they will fit the USDM fit. Most likely they will This question can be answered very shortly

Awesome. How do they fit? Fitment on my S13 was a little rough around the edges, and sat me up a little higher then I would of liked.

Anyhow, I just got a confirmation from tee's USA, Bride in the USA I suppose, and they provided me with this information:

From: info@tees-usa.com

Hello,
Do you sell or manufacture a seat rail for the Honda Fit GD3? If so
which models? I'm interested in purchasing a Bride Zeta III seat,
however, if there is no seat rail made for my model auto, I will be
out of luck. Thank you.

No doubt about it. It seems like there is a lot of information out there about this car (it has been out for a few years), but it's locked in obscure web forums and other languages, or not indexed by Google. Let's get this stuff out there!

Bride Seat Rails / JDM Recaro's Installed!

Here are some pics of installed bride seat rails /jdm recaor's in my fit
Fitment is almost 100%
However passenger airbag module/sensor/whatever--- needs to be mounted on the side if factory seat belts are to be retained!

Enjoy!
