sliding seat with breeze mount?

[toadster]

Was thinking about adjustable sliding seats, my wife and are are both around 5'9" to 5'10" but her legs are longer so maybe an option to adjust?

does this work with the breeze seat mounts? Don't want to feel like it's going to raise the seat 2" or something...
thoughts? ideas? recomendations?

found these online, not too bad for a pair for ~$50

Todd, I'm not sure these play nice together? I'll wait for others to chime in to verify. I'm actually planning to be able to run both the roadster seats on the breeze mounts, and be able to swap out and put in a set of high-backs on different mounts depending on driving style or car shows. Either that, or I might add a headrest to the roadster seats too. My neck is in charge and has full say when it comes to the seating. :D

I bought universal sliders from Summit. The kind with a hoop in front that you pull up on to disengage the seat to slide. I then sandwiched the slider between the Breeze floor mount plate and the angled seat mount plate. This way, I’m sliding the tilted seat forward and back. All holes lined up. Actually pretty easy or I lucked out! Raised the seat maybe an inch. Not noticeable.
I’d post the link to the slider, but I can’t log into Summit. Site is down.

EDIT: It wasn’t Summit. Got the sliders from Amazon.

nice! I saw those, wondered if it would mess with the submarine belt though - any pics?

I was thinking the same thing with my upcoming build. I'm pretty short at 5' 7" but my girlfriend is only 5'1".... we definitely need an adjustable seat if she is to drive. I would probably like the 1" lift as well.

My sub belt goes up through the seat straight up but you could put the belt behind or through the lever.
I’ll get pics tomorrow.
ALSO, the seat is up about 1.5”. Still not an issue.

I have the FFR sliders and added a 1” lift to the drivers seat and a 1.5” lift to the passenger seat since it does not have a slider. This way they are close to the same height. I just used a piece of aluminum tube and cut them to length.

My apologies. I forgot to grab pictures today. I’ll do it tomorrow!

Here is a picture of a slider between my seat and the breeze seatbelt. If you look on the right you can see how the seat is bolted to the angled or reclined bracket then there’s the slider and finally the bracket from breeze that mounts to the floor. Sorry it’s a bad picture but I honestly didn’t want to remove the seats again at least not now. One thing with this arrangement that doesn’t bother me because in the cobra there really isn’t much room to slide, but normally the handle that you pull up on slides with the seat but the handle on this set up is stationary. So as you slide forward the handle is a little further under the front of the seat. Again, it’s no big deal and it works.

I'm not sure if this helps. I have a 33 hot rod. I'm 6'3". I wanted to be able to adjust my seats for whatever. I bought the sliders from Amazon and the Breeze kits. Couldn't be happier. Plenty of adjustment, and the seats are inclined back a little giving more support to my legs.

I was going to mount it like that but I didn’t want to raise the seat when sliding forward. By sandwiching the slider between the breeze plates, it kept the recline but allows the seat to slide forward and back without changing the height of the seat.

Todd, I used the Summit sliders as mentioned by another poster. They worked well with the Breese seat mounts. I think I had drilled one new hole on each side. Pretty minor. I'm 5'9" and short legs (30" inseam) and need the sliders. Mainly for the clutch pedal. They do raise the seat up at least 1". I find my line of sight to be a the top of the windshield. I wish the seats reclined a bit. Bottom line is if you need them they work well.
