Hey guys. What options are there for lowering the OEM seats? I feel like it would be great to sit a little lower but I’m uncertain on the options. TIA
 
I know dc2 sit lower than ek9 but then u have 1 rear inner bolt that doesnt get a bolt through without modification.
A friend of mine has spoon rails which is even lower than the dc2 rails
 
I had a DC2 SR3 seats on DC2 rails in my EJ and to me it felt absolutely perfect. I had to modify it a bit(cut, weld new piece and drill a hole) in order to bolt it properly. I much prefer the OEM seat rails than any aftermarket rails.

P.S: I have never tried any other seat rails for the SR3 Recaro, but the hight, movement and overall experience was great and I never felt that I have to change it for any aftermaket seat rail. Unfortunately can't say the same about my bucket seats and aftermaket seat rails :)
 
I was looking at this a couple days ago. Bride do a version of their rails that lower the OEM seats along with Spoon and FEELS.

It's very difficult finding info on the OEM option as most rails are for side mounted buckets, which is annoying.
 
I was looking at an aftermarket seat rail really, I don’t think I’d get a DC2 rail and mess with it for it to match. I haven’t been able to find a Bride version, how much are they?

Not certain on the price of the Spoon or Feels rails, not seen a set pop up really.
 
Hi Mate, I am looking to go back OEM and having been looking for the drivers side ek9 rail. I currently have the spoon low seat rail which is in the car since I purchased it 12 years ago. I would be happy to swap if you were interested

Hi mate, I wouldn’t be able to swap unfortunately but if you were to sell the rail individually I’d be super interested to take it off your hands.

Hi mate, I am trying my best at the moment to find the oem drivers side ek9 rail so if I find it, I'd be happy to sell you my drivers side spoon rail no problem. I'll check back here when I get sorted and see if you have got sorted or are still interested :)

Hey mate, yeah for sure if you don’t sell it already or do a swap, I’d be very interested to take a look!!

Hey bro, they do have the Bride sear rails, a friend of mines who had a yellow EK9 had them and i pretty much loved it, for me i have alittle height and it is really nice. You can buy them on ebay which they ship from australia.
