Eeeesh that looks like a very uncomfortable seat for driving around town. Have a look at GT3 seats, Cobra seats, and Recaro for some other ideas that might suit you better. If you are going to fabricate mounting brackets and seatbelt attachment points make sure they are very robust with backing plates. You don't want to get ejected in a crash.

I think anything will be better than my current uncomfortable position. I don't drive more than 15 minutes at time, and im pretty much the only one who drives the car. I'll buy one seat, try it out for a little, then if I like it I'll go ahead and replace the passenger seat. And I hadn't thought about the safety, good point on that.
