The Wedge brackets sometimes take a little tweaking, but on the whole they're pretty decent pieces. I reinforced mine a bit as I could feel just a little bit of flex; 4 small gussets per bracket and 20 minutes of welding fixed that problem.
You can make your own brackets very easily, but I highly recommend buying a set of the Recaro sliders.

What he said...
You need to mount the seats that thier LOWEST position. I cut off the extra ears on the front of my sliders to get a close to the floor as possible.
Be forwarned that if you get the power option from Recaro the seats sit almost an inch higher. That's why I went manual with Penny.
My Recaros are bolted to the factory location.
