I did my own, used the ZS runners and seatbelt mounts so as to use the standard seatbelt and a harness. Bought some 30x6mm mild steel and made 2 off brace bars between the two runners and this was what the seat bolted to (bottom mount type seat).

Best check to make sure if using a side mount that it is okay to pass the current MOT regulations as this type is usually fixed.

Thumbs up
Cheap bucket seats are great for the track but can be back breaking on long journey's.

Cheers

Couldn't agree more there Paul, hence why I reverted back to the original seats as I found the Forza's killing my already poor back on long runs. A case of getting old and accepting it!
