Damn, it feels good to sit down!

Finally got a seat in the car and it feels good to be sitting behind the wheel. The seat position is just a little left of the steering wheel center but is not even noticeable. I had to keep it clear of the trans tunnel and e-brake, its pretty close quarters in there.

Of course Kaden gets to sit in it before I do.
Seat mounted.
Plenty of room to get into the back seat, just as long as you don't have any legs. This is in full forward position and for me to sit comfortably it needs to be nearly all the way back.

Here is a view of the fabricated front seat mount. It is 1/4" thick and 1.5" wide with 3/16" thick plate extensions welded to either end to use the original front mounting holes for the seats.
Heres a rear view of the seat mounts. due to the difference in seat tracks I had to drill new holes to attach the rear mount I made. All the bolt holes lined up on the first try thanks to the old measure twice cut (or drill) once rule.
