I don't know the details, but I'm inferring that the CRB (or whomever) does not like the idea of using stock sliders. There's probably a back story on this, something like someone tried to use some crap that wasn't safe and a Tech guy bounced 'em, then the person leaned on the lack of guiding info in the GCR to get by. Purely my guess.

I've used stock sliders in Miatas; they fit well and are built well. But no longer...

Because this whole seat mounting issue is starting to be a real pain in the ass.
Tell me about it. I'm not quite sure anymore how much flexibility in judgment I have in approving seat mountings, nor a clear idea on what my minimal responsibility is.
