GO!

unscrew recaros rials and moveing handle.
one side is 1cm higher because of piece od pipe. we must gently cut the one from the back side, and place it i pair with the front one, addung something to compensate loss of material due to cutting process.

we must cut back of stock rials, because they cover the recaros.

unsymetrical metal pieces holes supposed to be 3cm from recaros screws (from center)
now we mark, drill and use M8 (dont know the name, makes cuts in the hole so we can use screw)

you must modify.
i'm planning to beat up those unsymetrical mounts, to lower them and make holes in them.

or you can make new mounts from L-shape metal.
or weld.
or screw
:)
have fun
