It would probably be way cheaper to get someone to make you the brackets.

I think the best way is to use the Corbeau brackets that don't come with sliders, get the models with the T at the end I think its 2008T and 2009T. T stands for tall, and these brackets come with sliders.
They aren't a direct bolt up, another member on this site used 1/4" Steel and made a bracket. Basically just mounted the blate to the seat bracket then the seat to that plate. I used 1/4" high grade aluminum, slightly more but it weighed allot less than the steel.

When I installed my MOMO seats I used the MOMO sliders and mounted them on Sparco bases. All the bolt holes lined up perfectly and the fit was excelent. The only thing I needed to do was put about 4 washers under the front mounting bolts to angle the seats back a little. The MOMO seats I had were a fixed back with no adjustment so I had to shim them to get them the way I wanted. Hope this help with your install and lets see some pic's when your done.

I use Recaro seat base for my Recaro replica which uses the same slider as the Tom's. I need to drill two holes at the base since the crappy sliders is shorter then the real recaro's.
