Default A simple, yet complicated question...

Hey guys.. I just picked up 2 pairs of racing seats for 300 bucks from a kid back home (Im at college now). Im trying to figure out the best way to mount them without doing much damage to the car. Im thinking of getting some universal sliding brackets, having them welded on metal strips then drilled to fit the original holes for the front. For the back, I dont know how to go about doing it. If I remove the back seat, theres no mounting brackets for me to use. Would welding them on be the only choice I have? Is there any other practical way?

heres the seats, Ill be picking them up come my spring break in a few weeks.

[align=center]Nice Seats 4 Sure [/align][align=center]Mike check out the below link[/align][align=center][/align][align=center]Hope it gives you some information [/align][align=center]
Installing seats is one of the most noticeable changes you can make to your Chevrolet Monte Carlo. Keep in mind, though, that seats almost never mount up to your factory seat brackets. This means that installing seats (aka buckets seats) in your Chevrolet Monte Carlo requires you to buy not only the seats but also the brackets, which are sold separately. If you have any questions about how to install Chevrolet Monte Carlo seats, please call us at 1-800-419-1152.[/align][align=center][/align][align=center]http://www.andysautosport.com/racing...nte_carlo.html[/align]
