The flanges and seals are attached to the floorboard and tunnel, as 
mentioned.  The floor and tunnel holes are oversized and you will need a part 
called a J-clip.  This is a steel clip with a hole with the size and pitch that 
will engage the #6 screw and allow some float for alignment purposes.

J-clips come in many varieties so get clips specifically for #6 screws.  
You may find them locally or you can probably get them from the usual Brit Car 
supplier.
