Mounting Busket Seats

Currently researching what I'll need to purchase to fit my Mirco bucket seats.
Been talking to GSM with regards to frames etc and wondered what peoples opinions on here were with the various optuions, if they have past experience with them.

Basically looking at Cobra lowered subframe and side mounts or OMP frame and side mounts.
Cobra one looks to sit lower if base mounted, but my Mircos cant so I would have to go with side mounts also, which looks to remove the advantage of the base mount?

Cobra frame : http://www.sportseats4u.co.uk/brand...t-lowered-direct-fit-subframes/prod_1318.html

OMP frame : http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/perfo...ult/clio-98-05-172/omp-tailored-seat-subframe

Side Mounts : http://www.sportseats4u.co.uk/sparco-fia-steel-side-mounts/prod_601.html
 
The picture of the OMP ones does not look like the ones you need.
They should look like this

You need them and the sidemounts. However if you want the seat to sit any lower then you need to do some modifications. You can drill lower holes in the sidemounts, and you can also cut and reweld the oms subframes.
I have seen extra low cobra subframes which would be ideal if you can get them.
 
When searching the cobra x low subframes dont seem to appear, are they no longer made or limited suppliers?
I see what you mean with the frame, basically the clio one is flat on the floor and isnt offset / raised at one side
