They fit pretty well I pushed them up against the hump in the center of the
car and I still have enough room to slide my hand down between the door and
the seet in case I lost the seat belt. They mount with a bar that goes
accross the front of the seat on the under side. I put a one inch square
piece of wood between this and the carpet. It lifts the front of the seat
up a bit and tilts it back. Without the wood it felt like you were too
bolt upright or leaning forward.
The seat slides forward and back on it's rails. I usually have it in a mid
position.
I am 6 feet tall and have no problems with head room. I have the
fiberglass hard top on in the winter that you see in the pictures. In the
summer, of course this is not an issue :-).
I do think it may raise your butt a little compared to the original seats,
but I don't remember ever sitting on the original seats. I put the GT's in
over 20 years ago.
I still have the originals however in case I want to restore them someday.
