This is what I found doing a search for "mustang seat brackets"
http://www.fordification.com/forum/view ... et#p464556

But it seem's to me there was somebody else too.....I don't think Keith or Zact ended up doing this :hmm:

After further searching on the net, i found the guy on FTE forum. At one time he was fabricating them and selling at a reasonable price. I sent him a pm.

I received a set of bucket seat brackets yesterday from Bill W. over at the FTE fourm. Over the years I've gotten a lot of stuff off the net that were either a disapointment or a sub standard part. These are one piece lazer cut heavy duty steel brackets. The quality is second to none. He's asking $130.00 + shipping using paypal, $125.00+ with a cashiers check. His handle is Bill W. at FTE, or pm me and I'll give you his email.

Could we talk you into posting pictures of the brackets? That would be cool.

Here is how those brackets will look installed. I bought the seats off ebay a few years back and dyed them to match my interior. I got the brackets from a local guy that had only one set left.

Nice! I just got mine bolted in this weekend, the red interior with black brackets shows up well, mines all black. I did have to make a couple of small mods to get the mustang seats to set flat on the brackets.
