Question Jegs/Summit lightweight seat mounting??

I've been searching for tips or pics on how to mount the Jegs/Summit lightweight seats. Is there maybe a write up or a sticky that I'm not seeing for it? If not, then maybe could we get one done? Or if the mods know of one could make a stick for it? Thanks again.

I fabricated the drivers side mount out of angle iron and drilled new holes in the floor of the car. The passenger side uses the stock manual seat rail that has tabs welded onto it so that the seat bolts up correctly.

Whats the weight on those seats? Are they comfortable at all? My cars a daily driver but I'm doing weight reduction and I'd like some lightweight racing seats-but not the race-style seats that Sparco makes. Thanks
