I dont have any rails for these, as I have never used them (brand new) I bought them to put in my import supra from japan, but then I found out my new supra has a full leather interior.
One of my mates bolted a set of the same seats straight into his early 80's model corolla, and as rollaboy said, the bolt straight into a ta22. You may need to buy a set of rails from a supra, or another similar car like a celica. Can you use the rails from your seats you have in your car now ?
These seats have two metal bars running along the bottom to bolt to the rails, and you just drill a hole and bolt to suit the rails you have.

They sit about the same as normal seats, they are roughly the same size as MK3 supra seats, except they wrap around you body and shoulders more.
Oh, and as you can see in the photo, you can even use a harness-seatbelt setup if you want.

well, to put into a RA28/3 you need to modify the rails a bit to make them fit. The seats should come with universal rails, but in my case they didn't fit. So just use standard celica ones and modify them.
Just so you know
Cheers

They would be fine in a Sprinter, you just need the sliding rails that bolt to the floor. You might be able to use the ones off the seats you have in your car now, or get some from the wreckers.

I bought them about 9 months ago, and i cant find the receipt.
they have the "complies with australian standards" tag still stitched on to the side of them.
They are 9 months old, but have never been used.
Yep, the seats have 2 steel rails along the bottom of them, and the sprinter sliding rails bolt to them.

The seats actually retail for $330 each...
I got mine 2nd hand off a mate for $150 but the side padding is all worn...
I got another pair of Corolla rails from teh wreckers and chopped them down to just the flat piece of metal that slides along the bottom part... Then, went to a metal place and got them to cut some lengths for me and they go in between the runners and the base of the seat...
It took about 3 hrs plus another hour to go and get the metal cut...
Not too hard...

Yeah, now they are about $330 each, but last year when I bought them, they were $379 each.
I'm just trying to get as much back for them as I can.
Obviously I have to set a reasonable price, or no one will buy them, so I will reduce them to $500.
SEATS NOW $500.
