Help with aftermarket seats

Hey guys i recently bought a pair of yonaka Ronin leather seats for my mustang but i am having a hell of a time trying to mount the seats. I picked up corbeau seat brackets hoping everything would bolt into place without any major modifications but i am having no luck.Has anyone here every tried installing these seats in a mustang and if so any advice will help.

Thanks in advance.

Just curious.....Why don't you just give Yonaka Motor Sports a call (800 824-4852) and
inquire about their universal seat sliders etc. for your seat model ?

You know, I would nicely go back at them over the phone this time and quote their statement...."Seats are designed to fit most Cars. They come with
universal sliders for easy installation. Fits 95% of all vechicles. "
I'm sure they could ship you the necessary hardware and make your life alot less complicated. Just my 2 Cents

Just an update guys I bought corbeau seat brackets and took them to my buddy and joe jays welding and he modified the bracket to work and it looks fantastic. I have just passenger seat installed at the moment because I am waiting on another corbeau seat bracket because I only bought one ( I wanted to make sure it would work befor I bought 2) I will post some pics once I get both into the car but even just one looks fantastic.
