    You have to fab your own mountings. I used steel pipe sections cut to length, some flat steel and grade 8 bolts with the Eclipse tracks.

    I know the mounts have to be fabricated on the inside mounts ( by the tranny tunnel but those brakets buy the door sills, are those bench brakets? or Maverick Bucket brackets.

    I have fox body 'Stang seats in mine.
    I used the rails from my horrid bench seat for the outer rails and the factory 'Stang rails for the inside ones. Here's the kicker...both mine are passenger seats! It took a while and was interesting but they look and feel good with black seat covers. They even slide back and forth as they should.

    Tell you what I want though, Conquest TSi seats. Charcoal grey. I love those.

    I put the rears in mine, and have actually updated the interior since this, but here's a thread with pics of the first set I had in mine:
