They look like the TRS. Any modifications to make them fit? Does Corbeau sell rails also?

Yes, they are the TRS. They came with their own rails and sliders. Bolt into factory locations. Only mod is that you have to remove the factory seat belts because the factory retractor gets in the way. Since I was going with harnesses, that was no big deal to me.

Read through this thread, as there is some great info in it. Not sure if that place is still a supporting vendor, but my deal went very smooth with them.

Roadster or the Roadster 2? Thats not that long, its just over a month.
His Corbeau look nice and you do gain the reclinable. Not sure if they are DOT appproved and/or if that even matters.
