Default aftermarket seat brackets

Hey guys. I have a set of Sparco Torinos going into my 2002 Z28. The brackets from Sparco that allow me to use the stock mounting holes is on backorder, would the Corbeau brackets be compatible with these seats? I don't want to make my own brackets because our floors are uneven and i doubt it would come out secure, unless there is a good write up on how to do so. Thanks very much in advance.

Jacob

i just put in corbeau seats in my car and was amazed on how well the brackets went in, no problems at all, like they were stock. i was expecting some difficulty of fitment cause their aftermarket, but there were non. not sure if they would fit sparcos though?

I would like to know how the scat brakets work out. I am in the same boat except I just bought the Hunsaker seats and can't decide on the brakets.
