For the driver seat I swapped the GD rails onto the GR base. I had to bend on mounting point of the GD rail to get it to fit the GR base, and I had to angle grind off another bolt on the GR base. I then replaced that bolt with a camshaft gear bolt ! it takes a bit more banging and bending to get this thing to work than OP mentions, but it works!
Nice. Post some pics!

I installed GR seats in my Bugeye, but I didn't really use the guide. Basically bolted GR rails into the GR rail substructure and then welded. Easier? Dunno. But it worked.

Did you ever get a chance to get some pics and do a write up on this? I am wanting to put some 2010 WRX seats in my 04 Wagon. This just seems like a big pain to have to swap over covers and such.

Has anyone tried putting BRZ/FR-S seats on GD/GG rails? I'm still shopping for something better than what's in my 02TS.
