Sparco Seat install

I am having some issues with the Sparco Evo 2 Plus seats. I got them in the car only to find out that I am way to tall in these. I need to drop the seat lower. I am 6' 2 and need head clearance for a helmet. I'm trying to put these into an S13 with Sunroof.

I have heard that the BuddyClub Super Low down rails will fit these seats and drop the height down a couple of inches.

What has everyone else done who is on the taller side with mounting eats into their S13??

Bride FG/NAMS Superlow seat rails work well.

Just not really made for fat people seats like Sparco/Corbeau

Dont buy Buddy Club. You have to modify them just to get them to the lowest level.

I have an Evo 2 and had it mounted in my previous S13. It is much wider than the off the shelf rail will accommodate. You would need to either modify the rails or build you own mounts (this is what I did). Basically, just measure where you want the seat, make some side mounts, and bolt them to the floor.
