    i did the same as sonsta. if ur seat is bottom mount its really easy. i boguht 4mm steel to lay across my stock rails, measured the distance between the front and back bolts under the seat and welded the steel into place. then i just drilled out where the holes would go through the steel from the seat (twice cuz i can't measure too good) which took ages cuz i used so thick steel. i used a 2mm, 5mm, 8mm and 10mm bits and alot of drill coolant stuff. it really is easy just pull ur stock rails off ur seat and you'l know what to do from there

    Dad and I welded a bit of 6mm flat bar to the original seat rail. Drilled holes in the flat bar for the seat to bolt on to.

    son57a that is exactly what I'm looking for, can you do us a favor, i need to also see the clearence from the steering wheel to the seat.

    can you move your seat forward or back at all, looks fixed in that position to me, i wanted to make up some sidemounts for adjustability

    btw, my seat is bottom mount, 20v kid, does the seat flex at all during turns????, cos ive noticed compared to son57a's rails, you don't have any support across the seat base
