Pre Fabbed Corbeau Seat Brackets 89 Civic Hatch
I did a search and couldn't find what I needed. I bought some Corbeau TRS reclining sport seats to replace my the stock seats (want to add 4 point harness and have better lateral support for track days) and was looking at fabricating my own seat brackets to mount to the stock sliders. The 88-89 mounting points and seat brackets are not very well designed leaving me with a lot of time I will have to do test fitting them. I also don't want to shell out $94 per seat for a set of brackets ($200! after shipping I'd bet).
Anyone have any bracket plans or know of a different bracket that can mount a Corbeau seat (or can be slightly modifed) so I can put these in my 88-89 Civic Hatch?

Here is some food for thought for you. To make a solid bracket you are looking at a thicker gauge steel ($), that you may have to take somewhere to cut and bend for you ($$) if you don't have the tools or conditions to do it yourself, and then, to play safe, you probably want to weld them together ($$$) rather than just bolting, screwing, riveting them. All together you may spend just as much money as you would on purchasing Corbeau's or some other aftermarket brackets.

I was thinking someone may have done this in the past and had a good plan of attack or pictures of what they've done.
