Here is what you do,get the mustang vintage, 1958-1984 , cut the two tabs off, get a small piece of adjustable metal strapping(has holes) make it look like the mount on your Oem seat and measure, screw in place with self tapping screws. Thirty minutes, great seat !!!!!
$325 see my signature pic also

Also, there is a local Indy here in ct. He has a brand new mustang fastback he got stuck with, might not be a comfy one though as mine, but half price cuz it's rear find.
Did you read the other thread on the 85-86 wg ?


I BOUGHT THE ONE PIECE VINTAGE BUT THERE ARE OTHER OPTIONS....
