Hardbar alternative?
Since it appears that hardbar has gone belly up or at least my search efforts turn up nothing for them anymore, what is a good alternative for a seat rail for the c5? I have a sparco EVO2 i want to mount in my c5z and read that the hardbar rail was the best option for getting these to fit. I was also looking to purchase a harness bar from hardbar as well but well ya.
Thanks

Try Arizen / Marrad,,,,they are a suppoting vendor here with threads on seats and seat brackets they offer. They offer side mounts with slider option and also connection points for harnesses. I have a pair in my car.

I had 2 of the holes in the rear risers countersunk so the seat can drop all the way to the rail if needed for extra headroom. Otherwise, the bolt or nut stops the seat from dropping further.
A customer write-up using these with a Cobra Imola in a C5 is below.

$299 shipped for a set? Have these been used with an evo2 seat yet? I know the evo2 seat is a little wider just want to make sure it would work before i spend the money. Would love to have a set to install my seat before lsfest

Shipping will be additional when the new kits arrive. I have a couple of sets that were used for test fits and could have some minor surface scratches. One has the parts photographed above. I could sell those shipped for $250, first come first serve.
