Porsche Crest Seat Help

Hey guys!,
Today my father got me generic racing seats for my 83' 944 na automatic (pictures attached), it came with sliders but not a mounting bracket, My question is how can I intsall these, for example is there any way to mount them without a bracket? and if not does anyone know where I can get them cheaper? we are on a very limited budget so less is best, Thanks guys!

while those aren't racing seats (racing seats don't recline), and the idea of a "racing seat" in an automatic makes me chuckle, i don't understand why you would not want to use the mounting hardware that comes with them

Bradical, yes we did get the car to crank up due to another board members assistance who was much better at wiring schematics than I was (Thanks Danny!). We look forward to having you over soon and hearing how your project is coming.

Flash968 the mounting hardware does not line up properly, that is why he was posting in the first place. Your statement about a racing seat in an automatic car making you chuckle, why do you have to take jabs at a kids first car project. This kid has put hundreds of hours of sweat equity into this car and it has taught him so many valuable lessons about mechanics and life. Why the need to laugh at someone genuinely making an effort and working hard to learn?

Garage
Have you tried to use the seat rail sliders from the original porsche seats to the new seats? At most you would need to drill a few more holes to make them work (hopefully?).
