I wonder if your seats were out of a later model if you had to modify =
the seat rails though the pictures on your site look like early seats.  =
I know there was a break point where the rails changed.  Mine are out of =
a =E2=80=9893 and all the holes lined up fine with the Patton brackets. =
I think Rick Patton can tell you what year the seat rails changed.=20

Hi John,

I think my Miata seats were out of a =E2=80=9999. They had speakers in =
the headrest, that I know for sure all though they were pretty much =
trashed and I ended up replacing them. I used a set of the Patton =
Machine billet aluminum mounting brackets which worked pretty well to =
mount them. You will have to modify the seat tracks as the stock =
mounting orientation of the bolt holes in the seat brackets are on an =
angle. The mounting kit comes with very clear instructions so no worries =
there.=20

I have a webpage on installing them on my website http://davestr4a.com

I think someone else on the list has the same mounting kit but I =
can=E2=80=99t remember who right now.

Regards,

Dave Connitt

I'm scouting for Miata seats for my 65 TR4.  I've done the research, but =

anyone used '90 seats? Or newer than 1999?  I imagine the tracks change =

Thanks for your help.
