08-15 Mitsubishi Evo X / 08-17 Lancer Driver Side Seat Bracket by Planted
The Planted Seat Bracket is a vehicle specific bracket used as an adapter between the floor of the vehicle and an aftermarket seat and it's accessories. Because the floor of each vehicle varies and typically is not flat, a vehicle specific Seat Bracket is required for installing an aftermarket seat.
We create each seat bracket using the floor of the vehicle as a reference. We literally bring each vehicle into our development center so we can create the best fitting, bolt in, universal seat bracket possible.
Planted Seat Brackets are laser cut from 3/16 inch thick steel and hand welded to ensure weld penetration for superior strength. Each bracket is pre-slotted with hole patterns to accept sliders from most major seat manufacturers like Braum, Bride*, Cipher Auto, Cobra**, Corbeau, Momo, NRG, OMP, Racetech, Recaro, Sabelt, Sparco, Status Racing, Takata and more.
There is extra space on the bracket for drilling your own hole pattern if using a slider with a less common hole pattern, or direct mounting a seat or side mount when eliminating sliders is preferred. They are finished with a black powder coat and applications are available for many vehicles.

Please Note
- Seats come in many different shapes and sizes so not all seats will fit in all vehicles. It is up to the end user to determine if the seat will fit prior to ordering the Seat Bracket and other components.
- Many vehicles have the steering wheel offset toward the center of the vehicle. This can be accentuated when installing an aftermarket seat of a different size then the factory seat.
- Replacing a factory seat with an aftermarket seat may cause the vehicle's warning indicators to activate. This can be due to airbag, weight and/or other sensors in the factory seat that are not included in an aftermarket seat. It may be possible to eliminate these indicators with an electronic resistor but it is up to the end user to determine if a resistor will work & which resistor to use.
- Professional installation is recommended.

The guys at MAP are great, and I’ll continue shopping with them, but I’m not thrilled about this bracket. The bolt holes are all the same distance from each other with nothing different but the width of the holes. The holes also have horizontal slots instead of vertical. I tried using a stock evo X Recaro that I got with no brackets and the holes aren’t even close to lining up.
The bracket also doesn’t come with hardware (even though I called and some guy on the phone told me they would have hardware included) which made it tough to find a strong enough button head to clear the rails.
I needed the seat bracket for an event and the guys were awesome about helping me with shipping because of the delay on making the bracket. I feel bad, but I thought I’d share to save someone from taking this route. My Recaro still isn’t in and I’m thinking about buying rivets/a rivet gun just to make it work since I’m in it this far. I’m still hoping it lines up on the floor when I go to install it.
