You are going to need to by a bracket or modify the stock ones to fit. It's a bolt on. It's really not that hard once you have the right parts.

Get the Ebay seat brackets available on there... I had a set and with minor drilling/ modification they would have worked great. *Sold them BTW.

The seats off of ebay arent any more, or less safe than any other ones, you just haveta be careful which seats you buy, read the description well and ask questions, and be careful of the sellers. If you do this you should be o.k.

thats bull you know alota things on ebay are knock offs, their for where you have knock offs you have poor quality. it wouldnt function the same way as a regular known brand would. JUST remember the one saying "you get what you pay for"
