flo-fit seats in a fc

anyone ever see flo fit seats in a fc?

these seats came in mustangs saleens and other cars they retail for 1800 a set i think have almost everything adjustable awesome seats i got a set for 125

only thing is that i have to mod the stock fc rails to fit them on the seats .. i have to 1st drill a hole in one bracket and
2nd i gatta use 1 inch spacers to clear the seat frames.

my question is .. is this safe?

I have flo-fits! I'll post a pic in a minute, my dad put them in years ago. Sadly they're faded but i'm going to restore them and sell them if anyone wants 'em. They are actually really comfortable. New set of Corbeau A4's are on the way...

i think the mustang seats will almost bolt right in..

the flo seats are mustang seats if they fit then the mustang seats should fit..

PLEASE POST THAT PIC BRO @ Sc FC

Hey guys, sorry i didn't post the other day, i've been busy. Here's the two pictures i took of my Flo-Fits in my '86. Ignore my harness-less harness bar, my Corbeaus are on the way. I'll be selling these seats soon if anyone's interested, after i restore them.

they look pretty good in there. Did you mount them yourself or did you buy the car with them in there? Wondering how they are bolted down?
If Mustang seats are a good fit this opens the floodgates of possible seat replacements

when you take them out can you take pics of them mounted to the rails.. and then when you take the rails off take pics of them.. i dnt feel like spending 150 bucks for rails.

i think i can just bolt stock rails... if i drill a extra hole
