el_bandido Dimis - what mounts/rails are you using?

I have not yet got any rails, but I am thinking to use a set of bride. I will let you know once I have ended up with a solution.

I used a set of Bride rails with recaro mounts in my car and the seats were ridiculously low; I took them out in the end because it essentially gave me a massive blind spot to my right. I'd have a look at getting a spare set of standard IS200 runners/mounts and modifying them.

You'll find is200 s or altezza ones are too high.
I've got bride ones and I love them.

Isn't Dave running Evo seats on modified IS200 runners?

Pass I don't know. I know I found it too high when I made some runners from a set of altezza seat rails.

Well the TRD air bag cancellers arrived finally after 1.5month of waiting. There were lost in the local post office of Australia but luckily they found it! I am offshore currently and guess where -> in Liverpool bay. I am involved in the Westerlink power cable project. Once I will be back I will be doing quite some work on the car.

I returned home on Saturday and today I fitted the carbon fiber bonnet. Actually it is not a TRD version but a rare Eleven nines bonnet. As I mentioned in the past it was painted badly from the previous owner so it needed a lot of work to be done in order to look again. So I took the easy way for start an wrapped it with di-noc glossy and fitted also the Aerocatch hood pins. Well I think the looks of it is much better than I thought. Here are some pics. Let me know what you think. BTW it is lightweight like paper. A lot of weight is reduce by removing the oem bonnet

Looking nice mate. But a bit dull compared to your shiny car
