Default Driver's Seat Slips

2002 Convert My driver's slips forward a little when I brake. Feels like it moves about one inch. A while back somebody posted pics on how to fix that. Seems to be a common problem. Can anyone give me advise on how to fix or where to look up that old post on how to fix ?

Look up "rocking seat fix" on google or your search engine. West Coast Corvette and others sell the kit, but you can make your own. Rod

This is probably one of the best write ups i've seen to fix the problem yourself.
