When I had my momo seats I made my own brakets from aluminum. Are the mounting holes on the sides or on the bottom of the seats? Look at it closely and I bet you can figure something out. You could probably get some aluminum strips from your local store and just bend and but it. Just make sure the aluminum is thick enough to support the weight.

DO NOT USE ALUMINUM FOR YOUR BRACKETS!!!! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!!!

I had a member make me some brackets here and he made them out of a reinforced aluminum of some sorts, and I had them in my car for about 6/7 months. Now I'm not a "big" guy at all, about 180lbs, 5'11. When out of the blue the aluminum SNAPPED, shot my entire seat back, and I damn near got into an accident because of it. Aluminum isn't strong enough, and if it gave away like that, imagine what would happen in the event of a major accident.

Use steel, or iron, of some solid type of metal.
