    more info needed. The short answer is bolt them to the car, preferably with one behind the steering wheel facing forward.

          Those look like mk2 recaros, I believe Janderson makes mounts for them as he ran them in his own car.

              They are Recaro Trophy's. Josh (Janderson) does make the adapters. He gets them to you at a killer deal.

                      I have those exact seats and they are LS-B's. Same structure as "Trophy's" but Trophy's came from the "Trophy" interior which had black vinyl (or leather?) bolsters and the rest of the seat was cloth.

                      I also Just picked up a set of Trophy's for $100 on CL but they need some work.

                            I got my seats from Mr Anderson with his mounts.
