I got a leather bonneville seat with an intergrated seat belt. It has two front brackets and on one rear bracket on the right side. There is no left rear bracket. Has anyone mounted this kind of seat to an existing pedstal. I have an 81 mc9 with manual rise pedstal. Looking for suggestions. I know to use a plate, but having troulble on how to figure out how to mount the left rear to the plate.

Can't you drill through the plate and into the seat rail, and
just bolt the two together using some washers between?

John E.,

Make sure you run the seat(if power) through all the positions before you bolt it down tight.

I put in a Chrysler New Yorker seat and I had to raise it 1/2" to accommadate the motor movement.

Of course that was after it was securely bolted down.
