I just finished building some bucket seat mounting brackets to mount 1992-2002 Cadillac Eldorado seats in tri-5 cars. I had been requested to build a set of mounts like the ones I have in my Nomad by another member, and couldn't justify building just one set.....so I built 8 sets, sold some of them, and still have a couple that are not spoken for.
I think these bucket seats are some of the best available for our cars, since they're a little larger than many others and the backs tilt forward as required in a 2-door to get into the rear seat. They are typically 12-way power with heat. I know these mounts work with 1999-2002 seats, and I believe they work with that entire generation of Eldorados from 1992 but I can verify if you have some. I also believe these would work for the same vintage Cadillac DeVille seats installed in a 4-door (seats don't tilt forward). It's possible they might work with other seats that have tracks on 15" centers.
The parts are CNC laser cut, TIG welded, and all Grade 8 hardware is included. The outer mounts bolt to the stock seat mounting holes. I provide installation instructions with the kit. Some minor fab work is required, such as minor modification of your seat tracks to remove some of the stock pieces, and re-drilling of some holes. The inner mount needs to be custom-fit to your floor, but that's not a difficult job. For safety, I use two bolts in front on each track, and the inboard rear bolt goes through the floor and the floor brace. Remember that your seatbelt is anchored on your seat at the rear inboard corner.
The kit is $295 plus shipping. I will have them on eBay too. Let me know if you have any questions or e-mail me at Lnobi53@yahoo.com
