well... kinda?

im saying take of the bracket of the bottom of the stock seat... hold it up examine it look at it and then slowly place it down over the new seat... at that point take some tape or something so you can hold it in place then set it in your car to see if it fits and looks right...

make small adjustments and then drill some holes and bolt the sucker down ...

hmm, there is an idea...That sounds good...But I am a tiny bit confused. Do I keep the brackets on the stock seat, as well as the metal bars drilled into my car, and the sliders on the new seat?

i would take everything off the stock ones and put it on the new ones...

if that is possible... which means removing all the parts on the new one and going down to the seat bracket mounts... pretty much
