Did you read this thread? There are plenty of reviews in it. You can also search for seat brackets or binary and find more threads with reviews.
Cliff Notes: Everyone loves them and feels they are the best Mod on their EVO. Seriously.

Being a novice seat remover I thought these tips would be usefull:
Remove loose seat from back door
Loosen the pita allen bolts before loosening the main 14mm seat bolts
DO NOT reuse front caps or seat won't move forward Like Binary said...not worth messing with
You CAN velcro outside-rear OEM bolt cover back - looks fine
Adjustment bar: eyball and yank bar by hand. Its easy after crushing each side w channel lock pliers. Nothing major
ABSOLUTE must for taller drivers. I can see the entire speedo now, shifter/wheel is perfect. I love my bushed/short shifter now it feels sick.
Its almost like a 350z/S2k with shoulder height at or below bottom of window. If you wanna hang your arm out you must hang it 'up' now. No more greasy arm hangin out for you blvd pimp cruisers.
Main thing nobody has mentioned - ingress/egress is better since you are not hitting the lower bolster as much! Much nicer getting in-out.

yes I am white
Wife is 5' 1" so she aint driving the car even w/ pillows lmao
where stock seat brackets belong for 6ft drivers....

7 sets left in stock,
UPDATE:
Looks like there will be around a month of back order when those are gone before I get the next set of parts. So get them while I've got 'em.
