At a quick glance, I had a feeling this wasn't going to work...
The more I looked at them, and thought about how the hell this would work, I finally thought of something. I measured the bracket that holds the sliders on the recaros...
Its 15 inches from bolt to bolt. Then I measured my 89s factory seat...
Its about 14.5. So my thinking is that if I mount the 89s brackets with sliders onto the Recaros, the bolts on each side will be off by .25 inches. The metal part that gets bolted to the carpet on a fox are pretty large, and I'm pretty sure those holes can be enlarged without problems. I have a friend bringing me sets of brackets with sliders this weekend.
I already removed the Recaro's brackets.
Hope this works!
