The Sabelt Seat Sliding Runner Kit, part number SAB-SR, adds fore and aft adjustment to a Sabelt seat installed on side mounting brackets. The runner kit fits between the side mount brackets and the seat side rails, letting the seat slide forward and backward on a track and lock at the chosen position.

This is the component to add when a car is shared between two drivers of notably different heights, or when a fixed seat position turns out to be wrong after the initial installation. Without runners the seat bolts directly to the brackets in a single fixed position; with them you get a usable range of adjustment without disturbing the bracket or frame mounting.

The runners are designed for use with Sabelt-compatible side mounting brackets. They do not replace a vehicle-specific frame; the seat still needs the correct frame for the car, and the runners bolt to the top of the frame rails. If you are also buying brackets, the Sabelt 3mm Steel Side Mount Brackets (Z200004) are the standard matching item.

Not all bucket seats are compatible with runner systems. Side-mountable fixed-back seats that use rails along the lower edge of the shell are the type these runners fit. Base-mounted seats use a different frame design and are not compatible with this kit.

If you are unsure whether your current seat and frame will accept runners, or which length of runner suits your car, send us the seat model and frame details and we will confirm before you order.

Seat runner and slider guide

Sliding runners let you move a fixed back bucket seat forwards and backwards. There is one thing everybody gets wrong about them, and it is worth clearing up before you look at the range.

The millimetres are the handle width, not the travelA 405 mm runner does not move further than a 291 mm runner. Every runner here gives the same fore and aft adjustment. The figure in the title is the width of the handle bar that spans underneath the seat, and you pick it to match the width of the shell you are fitting. All three Corbeau options are the same price, which is the giveaway.

Match the handle width to the seat

Measure across the underside of your seat between the two mounting rails, or check the seat width the manufacturer quotes. Then pick the runner whose handle spans it.

Handle width	Sold as	What it suits
290 mm	Retro and Sportline	Narrow shells and classic seats
291 mm	Cobra, Corbeau	The common narrow option
320 mm	Motorsport STD	Standard width bucket seats
345 mm	Corbeau	A step up from standard
370 mm	Motorsport L	Wider shells
405 mm	Motorsport XL, Cobra, Corbeau	The widest we stock

If you are between two, go by the seat rather than by preference. A handle that is too narrow will not reach the rails and one that is too wide will foul the tunnel or the sill.

Runners made for a specific seat

Some kits are built for one shell rather than sold by width. If your seat is on this list, that kit is the easier answer.

Brand	Seats	Notes
Tillett	B5, B8, B9	Runner kits made for those shells
Recaro	Pro Racer SPA and SPG, standard and XL	Two widths, matched to the shell
Sparco	P1300GT and P1300GT LW	Base mount kit, quotes a seat width
Cobra	Nogaro	Sliding fitting kit for that seat
Endurance	Sparco and Recaro compatible	Aftermarket kits to suit those shells

Check the fixing type firstThe Sparco and Endurance runner kits are written for base mounted seats and quote a seat width rather than a handle width. A side mount seat needs side mounts and a subframe, not a base runner. Read our seat mounting and fixing points guide if you are not sure which yours is.

What a runner costs you

Height

A runner sits between the seat and the subframe, so it lifts you. In a car with a cage and a helmet that is the first thing to check, because the few centimetres it adds is exactly the amount you did not have spare. If you are tall, work out your headroom before you commit to running sliders at all.

Rigidity

A fixed seat bolted straight to a subframe is the stiffest way to mount it. A runner adds a moving joint. It is entirely normal for road and track day use, and it is why a lot of competition cars do without.

Sharing the car

The obvious reason to fit them. If two drivers use the car, or you drive it to the circuit and someone else drives it home, runners are worth the height and the weight. If it is your car and only yours, bolting the seat where you want it is simpler and lower.

Tell us the seat and we will match the runnerThe seat make and model, and whether it is side mount or base mount. The handle width has to match the shell and it is quicker for us to check than for you to measure it twice. Call 0115 989 3488 or email Sales@GSMPerformance.co.uk.

Widths and compatibility read from our own product data, checked 2 August 2026. All runners in this range give the same fore and aft adjustment.

Will this fit my car?
This frame is car-specific, so match the vehicle in the product name to your exact car and generation. If you are unsure, send us the registration and we will confirm before you order.

Which seats does it take?
Check the bolt pattern in the specification against your seat. If your seat is not listed, tell us what you run and we will confirm the fit.

Do I keep fore-and-aft adjustment?
Only with a sliding runner between the frame and the seat, which is a separate part on Sabelt frames. If more than one person drives the car, budget for the runner. Our guide to sliding runners explains the options and widths.
