Ken, I was just looking at your 'Interior Redo' in your 'Garage' and saw where you used 3A seats and was wondering how hard it was to install them. Saw nearly indentical ones today and said to myself, "self, those would look nice" but didn't know is they would fit. They obviously do, but are there any mods that have to be made? I really need a redo soon or I'll be sitting on apple crates.
;help
 
I'll post what I replied to you in our e-,mail exchange in case it might help someone else if they're deciding to replace their seats.

No, I didn't have to make any major modifications, but I did have to make some new brackets with which to bolt them to the floor. Currently, I only have them bolted in the front, the only two that I could reach.

I made a bracket by simply using a piece of 1/4" aluminum bar stock and drilled the appropriate holes. The rear bolt locations would require the same type of assembly but I cannot figure out how to accomplish this just yet.

They are pretty comfortable too. :upthumbs

I'll also move this to the "C4 Mods" forum Gordon. ;)
