Question Racing Power seat?

Is it possible to mount a racing seat to the stock power seat track etc... im sure you would have to fab a bracket, just wondering if anyone has ever done it... you would also have to make a little box or something for the switches... the reason why I ask is i would like racing seats but im short 5'4" and if they sit too low i wouldnt be able to see I cant imaging it would be that hard... just fab a bracket so the bolt holes from factory bolt to the bracket, then the bracket bolts to the seat, then fab some sort of pod for the switches...

I know it has been done. I remember SLP built a 427 Camaro a few years ago that had Kirkeys mounted to the stock tracks.

Well from the looks of those tracks... it looks like it would be really easy to make a different bracket to mount the seat
