I just did mine yesterday. I used the stock brackets and modified them to work with the racing seats. It was very easy and pretty much self explanatory. With the pics I attached you can get a pretty good idea as to what needs to be done.
I used two 2x37in steel strips (that I got from home depot) and had the shop foreman from the lincoln dealership I used to work for, weld the plates to the stock seat tracks and drill the hole to mount to the bottom of the seats.
Cost about $40 for everything.
If you need help just ask.

That's pretty much the way I was thinking of doing it, just wasn't sure if it could be done like that. Luckily, I work at a home depot import warehouse, so I think I get a discount on store purchases, and I have a friend that welds so I'm looking a really cheap seat brackets
Thanks
