Default Aftermarket Seats - Anyone have them?

I have been looking at some aftermarket seats for the Boxster and I have noticed that none of the seats come with rails for the Boxster.

Is there a company that makes a universal seat rail for the Boxster?

I have seen some seat manufactures sell separate Boxster rails for there seats.

Does anyone make a universal seat rail, so I can use any aftermarket seat?

Brey Krause sells the equipment for many of the popular brands of aftermarket seats. Here's the link:

The only problem you'll have is that they don't make them in 1/43rd size.

I've got Sparco Evo 2's in mine. But they are bolted to the floor so I can't really help you with the slider issue, sorry . Seats fit well and are very comfortable. Brey-Krause (link posted above) has some pretty good stuff. If they do not have exactly what you are looking for give them a call. They may be able to help out.

The GT3 seats seem very popular with Boxster drivers. Are they not a direct bolt in? I have them in my 993 and had to get the B-K mounts to gain some headroom.

I believe that the GT3 seats are a direct bolt-in. I also ordered B-K mounts to gain some additional headroom.
