Check out Pro Car Parts on Ebay. Universal racing seats will fit. There is just a minor mod that is really simple:

-Center the seat caraige (whether electrical or manual) on the bottom of the race seat.
-Measure the dstance from the holes in the seat to the holes in the caraige.
-Go to Home Depot and buy a 4 foot long flat piece of aluminium.
-Cut it the proper length with a hack saw (grinders work better)
-Buy a drill bit made for metal (titanium ones work well) that is the same size as the bolts that came with the race seats.
-Drill the holes the proper distance that you measured earlier.
-Attach the metal brackets to the caraige via nuts and bolts (only finger tight b/c you may have to rotate the brackets to line them up).
-Install caraige in car.
-Attach seats to brackets.
-Tighten everything down and enjoy.

The holes on my seats were closer together than the stock ones so I had to point all the brackets inwards. I still have full mobility in my motorized chair and the passanger can still use the lever and slide in front to back. It is also alot easier to have the caraiges out of the car when doing this.

Here's a pic of my car.
