yes, i understand that will be the easier/quickest way, but will the seats be level? that is the thing i m afraid of.

thx for the input guys, for some reason, my pass side only got the front 2 lined up. I haven't try the driver side yet. I guess i'll dremel the holes bigger than.

well, i tried to file the bolt hole down but is gonna take forever, so i'll use my friend's dremel tool tomorrow.

Q !

should i leave the front 2 hole alone and mess with the rear only? or should i enlarge the front too. The reason behind this is, when the front bolts are bolted down tight, the rear bolt holes would not sit flat on the floor.

just leave the front 2 hole alone, trim off the rear only.......for the 2 front, just hands tighten them half way. so you can do some adjusting to the rear.......so u will know how big u needed to trim off........
