Default Recaro SPGs into 944 questions

Hi folks, Ive done quite a bit of searching and not finding all the answers Im looking for for what I have / have looked at buying:

Im looking at installing 2 Recaro SPGs that come without brackets/sliders so I need to order brackets and have been looking at Speedwaremotorsports brackets, factory Recaro brackets, or Brey Krause brackets.

Q: Are any (all?) of these brackets capable of retaining the factory 944/911 issued sliders? I have a complete set of driver/passenger sliders from the stock 86 seats that I can use and Id like to make this the most cost effective / bolt-in solution.

Thanks,
Sam

Well after talking with some folks it seems like Recaro, Brey Krause or Speedware brackets can be used and Ill be using Recaro non-height adj. sliders...this should allow everything to bolt right up. Also on the option list are tunnel belt mount kits made by BK or Recaro to allow for the 3-point belt to still be functional...

Northstar Motorsports comes in around $320 for Recaro brackets/sliders and Stable Energies is around $330 for the same. Prices go up from there swapping in BK mounts or Speedware mounts. (Although not much, they are all pretty similar...)

How much do the Recaro sliders go for?

Roughly about $70-75 per side for the ones Im looking at, there are others though.

I came across a pair of used Recaro sliders (from a 964 w/SPG's). I thought I might have had a friend that needed them, but turns out he didn't. Not sure I will ever use them. May be worth something to you though. Interested?
