Correction:

Yes, the seats are a direct bolt-in replacement, but because there is no height adjustment, I am too tall to wear a helmet, at 6'0", even with a BK roll-bar extension. Therefore, I had to buy BK brackets for both seats at $176/ea (less a small discount) and have a harness bar fabricated ($175) to get the shoulder belts at the right angle. Throw in the cost of 2 Schroth Profi II 6-pt harnesses and 2 tow hooks and you have a rather expensive morning, even without the Hans device. (A 30 degree Hans seemed to work best with these seats). Many thanks to the friendly and hyper-competent staff at Stable Energies in NJ for getting it all right. Let's hope I never find out how well it all works.
