I hope the MO rails work out for you, from what I've heard and seen they are the same as the RO rails but instead of being welded they have removable cross bars to support alternate bolt patterns. I'm not sure how (honda-tech)OP determined the RO drop but I think it's underestimating the drop compared from JDM rails, maybe from USDM position?

So I ordered the Juran Replica seat rails from JDM Ohio Direct, they were BNIB and cost $385.

The installation was super easy, high quality and definitely worth the price tag.

I'm happy to say they actually sit just as low as my Del Sol seats on Integra rails!! Image

How’s the movement (adjusting and locking)?

Works perfectly, smooth and feels solid as can be. Locks in on both sides too not just one like the Vision rails

I don't think they are a replica of anything, I'd be surprised actually.
