Default Sparco seat installation in 4 door

Ok, I just bought a Sprint along with what I guess are universal seat sliders, which of course mount to the base of the seat with no problem. Along with this I bought what's listed as a 90-91 4dr Left Side seat base, which comes nowhere close to fitting correctly. All attachment points on this base are angled down whereas there is one flat attachment point on the chassis of my car with the other three angled down. Now, I'm assuming that there's not a difference between the seat mounting points in a hatchback and a 4 door, so I'm wondering if anybody who's had any experience with putting these seats in their car has any advice to offer. And yes, I did a search, but mostly all info I found was related to the CRX and wasn't very helpful anyway. So, anybody had any experience mounting these seats in an ef?

I thought I read somewhere that Sparco makes them specifially for our car, but they're something like $100 each? Is that true? I basically just need to know if they sell a bolt-on mount or if I'm going to have to fabricate my own. I'd like to go ahead and get started if I need to make them. Anybody?

Thanks for the response, but it looks like I lucked out and was able to use the mounts for a 3 door as I had hoped. Maybe this will help out some other fellow 4 door owners out there.
