Yeah, I installed them. I had them in for about half a year and went back to stock. They sat so high, it wasn't fun to drive the car. When I went back to stock, the first drive was all grins

If you install them, try to fabricate a bracket that will sit the seat LOWER than the stock bracket feet height...

Yeah I'm going back to stock seats too.
Racing seats on stock brackets sit way too high.
