Looking for shell seat feedback??

I'm installing some Recaro shells in my 993.

I've collected
Recaro Profi XL
Recaro steel side mounts w/ bolts to mount to the seat
Sparco flat sliders

Some of the hardware came w/ a used seat that I purchased and some is borrowed for test fitment all can be replaced if a better solution is available

???
Any body use this combination? If so do you remember what size bolts were used between the sliders and side mounts? Between the sliders and chassis?

I'm thinking of making a sub slab bar so as to avoid drilling holes in the floor for the 6 pts subs, I have a practically infinite supply of al. and steel stock and a full machine shop. It looks doable, but space is a concern, the seats need to be mounted as low as possible and the computer has not been relocated(though it can be), any one else do this?

Feel free to suggest alternates that you have used, the only constant is that the seats have to be the Profi XL

Anything to report on this? I'm looking at this seat myself.
