Default Sparco EVO II US Install

For those considering installing the Sparco EVO II US, there is a thread in the Autocross section that utilized one of our bracket systems. It was in a C5, and the C6 would have even more room and be easier.

I made a video on my phone to show the adjustability of the brackets that were used.

The picture below shows a bracket without the seat. You can see the slots in the side mounts. After you position your seat in the car, pull the seat, remove it from the brackets and add some holes for grade 8 bolts at the end of the slots. Two holes at the front end of slots and two holes at the rear end of slots is good if possible.

These just simply give you a way to mount an aftermarket seat in the vehicle. Removing the stock seat and tracks removes components from the airbag system and the user is responsible for that. Dan at Vetteworksonline.com has some plug-in components to resolve some issues.

Now we just need to find someone to get the steering wheel airbag light to turn off.

This is very easy to do.. Insert resistors into the airbag connectors.
