Couple of questions:
I googled Bomz racing seats and nothing came up, are they out of business? If so, can you recommend another seat that would fit in this car?

Did you find that you were able to recline the new seat more than the factory seat?

Were you able to preserve the six way power seat and recliner with the new seat? If not, are there any aftermarket seats that can accommodate the power controls for the seat?

Since I don't have the ability or tools to do the work you did, do you think that some sort of car shop would be able to do the install?
Thanks again.

I bought mine probably 6 years ago from a friend that had them for years, so it's possible lol. Here's a link to a set: WeSellCarParts.com - Bomz Racing Seats Black with Blue Insert (PAIR) BomzRacingSeatsBlackBlue

The point to the post though was for someone to put in anything they wanted. Almost every race seat has flat tracks, so my design works as a universal bracket.

It seems like it reclines more, but the seats alot thinner so it could be an illusion.

No, manual only. I was looking for comfortability and weight savings, not ease of use.

I believe Needswings sells brackets, after I made mine of course , but yeah, any run of the mill shop could install with brackets in hand.

No worries
