Which seats does the APEX XL Automotive Mounting Kit fit?

The kit is engineered specifically for the Kinetic APEX XL and matches the shell's pre-drilled universal side-mount pattern, so there is no drilling or guesswork during installation.

Will the mounting kit work in my car?

The kit uses universal subframe compatibility and fits a wide range of vehicle applications. It attaches to your vehicle's existing seat base or an aftermarket subframe for your chassis.

Do I still need sliders with the automotive mounting kit?

Only if you want fore and aft adjustment. Kinetic's double-locking slider kits install between the mount and the vehicle so multiple drivers can share the car comfortably.

What is the mounting kit made from?

Heavy-gauge steel with a black finish, chosen for maximum rigidity so the shell stays planted with no flex under cornering, braking, and acceleration loads.

Is the APEX XL Automotive Mounting Kit FIA homologated?

No. It is a non-FIA mount built for street, track-day, and sim-to-car builds rather than sanctioned wheel-to-wheel competition.

Description

Kinetic Seats APEX XL Automotive Mounting Kit

Kinetic Seats’ APEX XL Automotive Mounting Kit plants the APEX XL shell into your vehicle with zero movement and total confidence, from daily driver to track day. Built in the USA from the same heavy-gauge steel philosophy as the seat itself, these black steel side mounts are engineered for the demands of road and track driving, where a seat that shifts even a millimeter under load costs you feel, focus, and lap time. For the owner who installs a handbuilt Detroit shell in a real car, this is the hardware that finishes the job properly.

Design and Performance

The mounting kit uses universal subframe compatibility to fit a wide range of vehicle applications, connecting the APEX XL’s pre-drilled side-mount pattern to your vehicle’s seat base or aftermarket subframe. The heavy-gauge steel construction creates a rigid connection with no flex between shell and chassis, and the clean black finish looks as purposeful as the seat it carries. Pair it with a Kinetic double-locking slider kit when fore and aft adjustment is needed.

About Kinetic Seats

Kinetic Seats builds premium performance seats by hand in Clinton Township, Michigan, just outside Detroit. The company was founded by the same team that spent decades fitting drivers, engineers, and enthusiasts at one of the world’s most trusted names in performance seating, and every Kinetic shell carries that pedigree: measured in millimeters, stitched by hand, and built one at a time. Kinetic hardware runs at the highest levels of North American motorsport, including the FIA homologated race seat campaigned in the Ford Mustang GTD GT3 program, and the brand is chosen by drivers like Formula Drift’s Chelsea DeNofa, content creator Adam LZ, and racer Dani Clos. From the sim rig to the race car, Kinetic Seats exists for drivers who refuse to compromise.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
