Alright guys, here's some what of a write up on installation. I couldn't do step by step since I mounted them a while back, but this should work.
First, I utilized the existing seat mounting studs. As you can see, on the right seat bracket, I cut it loose and welded it back on to line up with the floor stud.
Next, I simply marked and drilled the rear mounting holes.
For the wiring, start with the seats. There should be two connectors under the seat, ignore the blue one shown.
On the other one, cut the connector off. Solder and heat shrink all of the orange wires to one thicker length of wire, these are the positive wires. Do the same for the black wires, these are negative.
On the car, the orange is positive, and the black negative. Splice into the drivers side and run the wires under the carpet to the pass. side. I used crimp connectors from the seats to the car for ease of installation.
Hope this helps...

This is funny. Third gen owners hate their stock seats, so they upgrade to 4th gen seats. 4th gen owners hate their stock seats, so they upgrade to Corvette seats. Corvette owners hate their stock seats, so they upgrade to Carvaggio seats. Am I the only one noticing this trend? 
On a side note, the corvette seats pretty much render the back seats even more useless since you can't flip them forward.
