At first I thought - this will be brittle and could fail in a wreck.....then I remembered the seats are made out of CF or FG. Only as strong as the weakest point.

If you glue the mounts to the tunnel they wont be moveable? I thought you wanted to be able to move them 2" back if needed?

Can you remove them if they are glued - with out getting too crazy? I like this way better than welding against that tunnel with out adressing fuel lines (like id did - roll eyes).

Another thought we cut off the stock mounts like you did and made a frame with 1" square tube and some flat.

I wonder if you could use the square CF tube that is available to cross brace for added strength or maybe even instead of the custom brackets you made. I have never looked I suppose the CF tube is $$$

I love this and I am going to go this route if I ever do it again.
