Default Moving seat mounts or sliders back?

I did a Del Sol seat swap in my 2k EX coupe...

Nice headroom now, but I want legroom to match.
Is there a way to move the seat, the brackets or something else, to gain more legroom?
I understand I could probably have some identical mounts put in and holes drilled behind the original, but I would like to avoid this.. I may sell the car again someday.

Is there any way to modify the seat or just plain anything to get more legroom?

Thankyou.

i doubt you can get more legroom w/o re-mounting the rails/sliders. but if you can figure something out post it up. 6'3" here

the more I think, the more I realize im going to need to make a mimiced front mount, and drill rear holes... But what about rust? wouldnt this make those new spots rust? What would I do to prevent that, IF i decide to go forward with this, ALSO should I be welding some support metal and drill through that and the body for the rear mounts?
