I decided to change the factory seats in my 66 convertable with a set 86 fox seats. After removing the passenger seat I noticed that the 86 seats has a longer bolt placement 14" vs 11" has anyone changed made this change or have any advice for me!

2 bolts will fit and you will to drill 2 new holes.I dont remember if i used the factory front or rears.I used seats in the past from a 91 fox and also a 94. If you are tall, you will lose some head room.
