Default GT3 seat question

I just installed a set of the Euro GT3 seats in my car. Love the support
and feel but wish they were reclined just a bit more, feels to upright for me.
Anyone with experience with the Brey-Kraus bracket kit for these seats?
Do they just lower the seats 1" or do they offer any slight fixed recline position?

Thanks in advance
Pete

When i installed mine using the BK mount, there are two slots in the front to recline the seat if you want. I had another slot machined into them so i could go even further if i wanted. I ended up in the second slot and with a slight recline. I have height issues w/helmet and this worked great for me.

C4bliss,

Ideally I want to recline the back or lower the rear. Is this what you mean?
Thanks

Well, at least in mine, the rear mount is a fixed location. The front location can be adjusted via the slots in the BK mount, tilting the seat up or down at the front.

This is a link to a DIY from a fellow member. You can see the BK mount, fixed rear location and the slots at the front.

Thanks for the info. I ordered the brackets today after speaking to
BK. They reassured me that the brackets will make the change I am looking for. Thanks for the input.
