What seats is the BRIDE Super Seat Rail XL Type compatible with?

The XL Type is designed exclusively for the BRIDE ZIEG IV WIDE and the BRIDE ZETA III Type-XL. No other BRIDE or third-party seats are listed as compatible. These two models are also specifically excluded from all other BRIDE performance rails, making the XL Type the only rail in the BRIDE lineup that supports them.

Why do the ZIEG IV WIDE and ZETA III Type-XL require a dedicated rail?

The ZIEG IV WIDE and ZETA III Type-XL have a wider mounting footprint than standard fixed bucket seats in the BRIDE range. The XL Type's breadth of 430mm is wider than the 395mm breadth found on the FO, FG, IG, FK, FB, FT, and LF Type rails, accommodating the larger base of these seats. Using a standard performance rail with either model would result in a dimensional mismatch and incorrect fitment.

Can any other rail be used in place of the XL Type for these seats?

No. The ZIEG IV WIDE and ZETA III Type-XL are explicitly excluded from every other performance rail in the BRIDE lineup. The XL Type is the only supported rail for either seat. Buyers fitting the ZIEG IV WIDE or ZETA III Type-XL have no alternative within the BRIDE rail range.

How much does the XL Type lower the seat position?

The XL Type delivers a super low seating position of up to 30mm below standard. The actual reduction achieved is vehicle-dependent, and depending on the vehicle type, the seat position may not be lower at all after installation. Buyers for whom achieving the maximum drop is important should confirm the achievable reduction for their specific vehicle before purchasing.

What are the mounting dimensions of the XL Type rail?

The XL Type has mounting dimensions of 290mm length with a ±5mm tolerance and 430mm breadth. The 430mm breadth is wider than the 395mm breadth found across the other BRIDE performance rails, which is why the XL Type is required for the ZIEG IV WIDE and ZETA III Type-XL rather than a standard performance rail.

Is the XL Type compatible with the standard ZIEG IV?

No. The XL Type is designed for the ZIEG IV WIDE, not the standard ZIEG IV. The standard ZIEG IV uses the LOWMAX system and is compatible with the LF Type rail, among others. Buyers fitting a standard ZIEG IV should confirm the correct rail for their vehicle through Bulletproof Automotive rather than selecting the XL Type.

Is the BRIDE Super Seat Rail XL Type made in Japan?

Yes. The XL Type is manufactured in Japan to BRIDE's quality and fitment standards, consistent with the domestic production approach applied across the BRIDE seat and rail lineup.

Description

BRIDE XL Super Seat Rail

The BRIDE Super Seat Rail XL Type is a Japanese-manufactured performance seat rail, developed exclusively for two of BRIDE’s widest fixed bucket seats; the ZIEG IV WIDE and the ZETA III Type-XL. With mounting dimensions of 290mm length (±5mm tolerance) x 430mm breadth, the XL Type carries a wider breadth than any other rail in the BRIDE performance lineup, reflecting the larger mounting footprint of the XL-category seats it is designed to support. The XL Type delivers a super low seating position of up to 30mm below standard, subject to vehicle type. As with several other rails in the BRIDE lineup, a secondary caveat applies; depending on the vehicle, the seat position may not be lower after installation. Buyers for whom achieving the maximum drop is a priority should confirm the achievable reduction for their specific vehicle before purchasing.

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.
