Yeah they are pretty high but I can live with that for awhile. I dunno about cutting them down if it would interfere w/ the seatbelt. I'll cross that bridge in a couple of years.

There are a couple of what I think are "extra" holes in the floorboard. I just measured width-wise from the top lip of the interior step to the other and calculated where they should sit. The inside front corners of the seats matched up with an exsisting hole so I drilled it out a little wider to accomidate my new grade 8 bolts. I used 3/8 x 2in there. On the outside fronts I used 3/8 x 3in. I had to drill new holes for that.

The rear of the seats is another story. I drilled all new holes for them. I do need to go back and fab up some kinda short spacer between the seat and floor so the seats will slide smoother back and forth. I'll be doing that today.
