Default ?? installing Pfadt seat mount and Recaro SPG race seat

Just got my new Pfadt Engineering seat mount for my race seat (for my 2008 C6). THe instructions are , ahem, shall we say a bit ambiguous.

Anyone with experience putting these in? Which way should the side mounts be oriented? (what is front and what is back on those?). Which bolts and where do you bolt those to the seat mount? How should the harness clip mounts be attached? (need a little more than "longer one on the outside"). How should they be oriented?


(photos worth thousands of words)

thanks!

hey! Another Pittsburgh forum member! I had the SPG in my 944 turbo race car-- kept it when I sold the car. Just trying to put it in-- been instructing for about 17 years, raced a lot with PCA, SCCA and Nasa. Couldn't ignore the vette with 436 hp-- this is my 8th one- but first in 20 years. FIrst event will be this weekend at Beaverun, then next week at Watkins Glen.

Either one of you Pgh guys heading to Watkins Glen 5/17-5/18 with the ARPCA this month. If so, I will be heading up morning of 5/16 if you want to hook up for the ride. I am located in South Park.
