I got this on one of my Scheel recliners years ago. It’s not E9 or E10, not Porsche.

The sides are 19” apart though, same as E9, so perhaps another BMW. Anyone know?

Greetings!

I think the slider mounts are the same distance apart on all scheel frames. That corresponds to the width of the seat. It is the genius of the mounting system IMO.

I looked around the first time and had nothing to offer. I checked Porsche, VW, and Ford RS. I also have a frame that doesn’t correspond to anything I know, but is less funky than your mystery one.
 
Thanks Mark, the Ford one was a good idea.

The center rails are 16" apart like all these brackets, as you said, and I thought it was an odd coincidence that the outer chassis side of the bracket were 19", same as E9. I thought perhaps E12.

Turns out the buckle had a part number for a W116 or W123 Mercedes, so I am going with that.

Off to Ebay it goes!

Ahh gotcha. I haven’t measured any of the bracket parts yet. Here is my mystery bracket. The mounting holes are about 20” apart. One bolt hole is vertical and the other is horizontal.
