after market seats

Hello,
I have two after market racing bucket seats and I took off the old seat brackets off the factory Mazda seats drilled new holes so they will fit the bucket seats but when I put them in the car I just realized that the factory seat it wider and now I can`t bolt them in to the car. Does any body know how to make the factory bracket work or do I need to buy two brackets that are made for my seats and will bolt right in? My seats are called OTTO-R RACING SEATS.

Thanks

Just so you know, you will have a problem fitting any aftermarket seat on the passenger side because the OEM seat rail mounting points on the center tunnel are higher than the other points. The seat will likely end up being too high except for the very short person. Been there done that with some very nice Corbeau seats even with the Corbeau brackets. Ended up returning them since no one with a helmet on could fit in the seat.
