Planted Seat Bracket - Mitsubishi Starion (1983-1989) - Driver/Left
The Planted driver-side seat bracket bolts an aftermarket seat to the factory floor points in the 1983-1989 Mitsubishi Starion. It is laser-cut 3/16" steel, hand-welded in the USA and pre-slotted for most major slider patterns. It's a clean way to add modern support to a classic build.

- Sold individually. Order the passenger side separately
- Not an FIA-homologated seat mount. Confirm acceptance with your sanctioning body before competition use
Disclaimers:
- 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 before 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 than 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 and which resistor to use.
- Professional installation is recommended.
Classic cars like the 1983-1989 Mitsubishi Starion were built long before modern seat design, and the original seats offer little support by today's standards. Whether it's a restomod, a vintage racer or a weekend driver, an aftermarket seat transforms the driving position.
Planted brings each vehicle into its development center and builds the bracket to the actual floor, which is why it bolts in rather than needing modification. Construction is 3/16" laser-cut steel, hand-welded in the USA for full penetration, with a black powder coat finish and three rounds of quality control.
The mounting surface accepts sliders from Recaro, Sparco, OMP, Cobra, Corbeau, Sabelt, Racetech, Status Racing and more. It's the Standard bolt pattern, so the Recaro pattern is included, while wide Cobra and Scheel-Mann sliders need one hole per slider elongated by 1/8". Bride sliders usually need their feet removed and a new pattern drilled. Spare material also allows direct mounting without sliders.
This is the driver/left bracket, sold individually. Order the passenger side separately for a matched pair. Confirm your seat's dimensions against the cabin before ordering. Removing the factory seat can trigger airbag or occupancy warning lights, which may need a resistor. Professional installation is recommended.
