[DeTomaso] Replacement Seats

I have Corbeau LG1 seats. They were the lowest Corbeau seats short of the
shell racing seats.
I have dropped floor pans with a Porsche mounting kit from Corbeau.
Apparently, 911 floor pans are flat like Pantera pans, so these were the
recommended kit.
They are maybe a bit taller than stock, but they are just the right size
for the car. Keep in mind - floor pans are dropped slightly, but these
seats look like they belong in the car.
I previously tried one of the $200 no-name seats from Summit. It was way
too tall and way too wide for the Pantera.
Me like my LG1s.
