recaro speed

Hello everyone!! I am going to buy a pair of recaro speed for my r53.
Does anyone knows what I need to install them without making holes with the drill?? Something like slider? Whats the code of this? All the photos that I am looking at google are with <<racing>> seats like sparco evo etc...

Does anyone has installed a sliding aftermarket seat?

Thanks!

Haven't done it.... Read something about it once.

You may end up with airbag lights. -There might be a way to program that out with like NCS or something. I doubt you could get a dealer to program the car for no airbags in the seats -it's removing a safety feature.... Unless your recaros have airbags.

Was there a JCW or GP that came with recaros? That's the route I'd try to take if possible.

this is the seat. I do not care about the warning lights... I want only to fit them without other holes or anything witch will damage the car..
I must buy a pair of sparco sliders? Or what else?
