Mk IV Roadster Seat Mounting

[Railroad]

While drilling and fitting everything to get the seats fitted, helper noticed the outside rear bolt of the seat went inside the 2" square tube under the floor. No problem, just get a nut started on the bolt and tighten. Problem, with the body on, you cannot get to the nut, if you have to remove the seat. I called around seeking a 5/16 rivnut. I found an 8 mm and had some 1/4" on hand. The 1/4" is pretty heavy duty and and has 4 legs that collapse against the surface. I bought some grade 5 1/4" bolts. Just a heads up, if is has not already been addressed.

One upgrade I highly recommend. solves the mounting issues and places the seat at a more comfortable angle. Also offers some adjustment .

Probably a less complicated seat mount than what I did. I failed to mention, I am using the FF large and tail seats with their sliders.
Now that it is done, everything is fine. I did space the front of my seats up approx 1.25" After all the work, I do have the advantage of no tool sliding of the seats.
