any tips on how you did the 5th/6th point hole in the seats would be greatly appreciated!

i got a good local interior guy that can reskin it

thanx
I cut a 1" x 6" slot in the bottom of the seats just in front of the metal crossmember... I used a Dremel with the metal cutting disk (the fiberglass is pretty thick under the seats, probably 3/16ths of an inch) to cut the slot. I only cut the fiberglass... not the leather. Then I brought it to Jim's Auto Upholstery (recommended by my local custom car audio dealer) to do the leather work. The Sector111 sys.6.pack is a pretty easy install...

Here's what the sys.6.pack looks like under the car... (the seats and sub belts are now bolted straight through the tub)
