I installed my seat rails the same way when I installed mine, only to find out the seating position was about the same, if not higher than stock, and the back of the seat was very straight up and down. But yes, you can only use the top hole if you configure it that way. I took the seats out and did some searching. To get the lower seating position, a couple inches lower and a more reclined seat. Put the 3 hole bracket on the rear, with the bolt through the top hole and the 5 hole bracket on the front with the bolt through the 3rd hole. Made a world of difference.

So ive been searching and cant seem to find a solid answer, I want to mount some fixed buckets but I dont want sliders. My question is can I just mount them in the stock seat holes with universal side mounts or do I need another piece to mount the side mounts to the floor?
