Sparco Chrono FYI

Just an FYI post, the Sparco Chrono does fit in an ST, I couldn't find any information stating it for sure so I took some measurements and I knew it would be tight but took the gamble as I'm a larger guy, I have the larger version of the 2. There was zero chance the factory Recaros were going to work for me and I almost kept the base seats but they just offer almost no support.

-It will not quite slide all the way forward, chances are if you need a bigger seat this isn't an issue.
-Even with the sliding rails your actually sitting about the same height as the base seat maybe even about 1/2in lower so no loss in headroom.
-The top left side or top right side depending on which side will brush against the B pillar when you do slide the seat back and forth.
-Seatbelt clearance is fine as well.
-The front of the seat feels like it needs to come up a little(just an opinion)

I used tsunami105's post as a reference during the install, lots of good info there about the airbag bypass etc

Those are the main things that came to mind, if I think of anything or any issues arise I'll update this post, hope it helps guys.
