Hey there Kar Audio Guy, I was just looking through your build and it looks good BTW, I just wanted to ask what size seats are those? Cause I'm putting one in my cuda I saw yours and got the same sort of mounting brackets that you got, but when I go to mount it it's only like four and half inches wide and you can't cut the steel wire cause then the other side wont work and I didn't notice anything on the Jegs site to say you need to order this one if you have a wide seat!

Did you have them same problem?

If you are talking about what I thinky you are, I'd just remove the wire and make a new one the correct length.

I'm guessing your talking about the slider part? I used a piece of TIG rod. I'll get some pic with mearment up in a few.

thanks for the kudos on the build

I use a rounded over chisel. Smack the groove on one side, flip it over, smack the groove on the other side. If that isn't enough, then I put it in the round notch of my welpers (mig wire pliers) and squeeze it in the vice.

my seat is 17". I flipped my brackets and sliders so the hardware is on the inside, just a cleaner look I think. the side you will need to drill a new hole so you can get the leverage right to move the other side with the new wire. I just bent the wire and pulled it through.

My last sliders quit working the first day in the sand.

Yeah that's exactly what I was talking about! Thanks guys,I think it's helpful at times to get other peoples feed back on what they did to over come a problem. Thanks again guys...
