Afermarket racing seats
« on: April 27, 2014 - 09:38:40 AM »
Wanting to install a set of Bomz Racing seats in a '73 Cuda. By ANY chance is there a universal mounting kit available?? it's not like the floor pan in as flat as a piece of plywood.

I doubt there is a kit available?  :dunno:  It's not hard to make your own? Here is what I ended up doing?

Depending on the seat height ( floor to steering wheel) you might be able to adapt the stock mounts?

I would use the factory bases & build an adapter between the seat & base

Because the e-body floor isn't flat, I've kept the factory floor glides and made simple adapters to those glides.
Autocross/road racers go in deeper... and come out harder!
