How do you mount aftermarket seats?

The seats in my 'vert are beyond repair, and I was thinking of going with some sort of aftermarket seats, or maybe Miata seats. I see phrases like "universal sliders" and the like, but the question is, how exactly do you mount the seats to the car? Anybody have pics of theirs with an explanation?

aftermarket seats plus model-specific bolt-in rails - no problems that way

see this page for examples: http://search1.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/...ale=0jp&acc=jp

I have a set of Wedge Engineering brackets + Sparco side mount adapters.
They cost a fortune to send it to me in Hawaii!
I can't use them with my EVO2's.
They will fit almost all the normal width Sparco seats and most of the other aftermarket one-piece "buckets".

These normally cost over $150 per side, but I'll sell em for $200 for both shipped.
I've replaced almost all the original fastners with high-strength 12.9 cap sockets, cause the original seller installed the old bolts wrong. :P
