BRIDE XERO CS PLUS Bucket Seat

The XERO CS PLUS features a deeply contoured hip and thigh section that wraps securely around the driver’s body, generating strong lateral support under high-G cornering without creating pressure points during extended use. Quilted fabric on the inner knee bolster areas improves fitment and comfort over long stints, letting drivers stay focused and precise without the distraction of fatigue. A standout addition to the XERO CS PLUS is its newly developed upholstery system, which incorporates CABLON ST® conductive fabric throughout the seat surface. This advanced material actively reduces static electricity buildup on the driver, contributing to more consistent cockpit stability and vehicle control, particularly in synthetic-heavy driving environments. Carbon-pattern accents on the shoulders and harness pass-throughs round out the aesthetic, striking a balance between premium styling and genuine racing character. The seatback now uses a half-cover construction, meaning the rear surface is finished and protected as part of the seat itself. This eliminates the need for a separate seatback protector when installing in vehicles with rear seating, streamlining the installation process while keeping the appearance clean and factory-quality.

Half-Cover Seatback Design

• The updated seatback uses a half-cover construction that covers and protects the rear surface of the seat as part of the design itself, so a separate seatback protector is no longer needed when installing in vehicles with rear seating. Installation is cleaner and faster, and the finished look holds up to factory standards.

Evolved Upholstery Materials

• The XERO CS PLUS uses CABLON ST® conductive fabric throughout the upholstery to cut down on static buildup and keep driving feel consistent behind the wheel. Quilted panels on the inner knee bolsters tighten the fit and hold up comfortably over long stints, while carbon-pattern detailing on the shoulders and harness pass-throughs ties the racing function of the seat to a finish that looks the part.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is the BRIDE XERO CS PLUS FIA approved for competition use? Yes. The BRIDE XERO CS PLUS is FIA-compliant and built for competition use. However, FIA homologations carry expiration dates, so it is recommended to verify the seat’s current approval status against the FIA’s active homologation list before use in sanctioned events.
• What is CABLON ST® conductive fabric and why does it matter? CABLON ST® is an advanced conductive fabric used in the XERO CS PLUS upholstery system. It reduces static electricity buildup on the driver during use, which contributes to more consistent cockpit stability and vehicle control, particularly in environments where synthetic materials are present throughout the interior.
• Does the BRIDE XERO CS PLUS require a separate seatback protector? No. The XERO CS PLUS features an integrated half-cover seatback construction that finishes and protects the rear surface of the seat as part of the design itself. A separate seatback protector is not needed when installing in vehicles equipped with rear seating.
• What makes the XERO CS PLUS different from the original XERO CS? The XERO CS PLUS is a complete re-engineering of the XERO CS platform rather than an incremental update. Shell geometry, internal construction, and seat materials were all redesigned from the ground up. Key additions include the CABLON ST® conductive fabric upholstery system, quilted inner knee bolster panels, the integrated half-cover seatback, and carbon-pattern accents on the shoulders and harness pass-throughs.
• Is professional installation required for the BRIDE XERO CS PLUS? Professional installation is strongly recommended. Correct positioning of the mounting rails, harness pass-throughs, and seat angle are critical to both the safety performance and comfort of the seat. Improper installation can compromise the protective qualities the seat is engineered to deliver.
• Will any mounting rail work with the BRIDE XERO CS PLUS? Not all mounting rails are compatible with every BRIDE seat model. Compatible rails should be confirmed for your specific vehicle before purchase. BRIDE offers a range of vehicle-specific rail systems, and verifying compatibility beforehand ensures correct fitment and safe installation.
