I have made custom brackets to adapt to the stock sliders. Since the Summit seats do not adjust I find almost every user is different as far as the lay back and height.

Those brackets do like they could be made to work.
 
I modified my stock sliders to fit the new seat, the enlarged then lower holes to fit to the floor

Still a no go here guys!!! Ive search hours on the net, ive contacted Summit and there about as helpful as a 1 legged man in an ass kickin contest. My stock slider will not fit on the seat, what the HELL do i do??
 
I bought a heavy piece of angle steel when mounting my APC racing seats.
I mounted them to the seat and then marked and drilled into the bracket from the slider then bolted everything up. It did take a little while to get it. But I like the outcome. They are solid as well.

Here is a pick of them mounted. I have more but have to find them.

I would take them to a metal shop and see if they can weld up some steel brackets to get them to adapt to the stock sliders.

This would be the best way to get them to work.

When making my decision on my 89 coupe, I ended up going with 2000 GT leather seats because they just bolt right in and I got a good price on them. OEM quality and not having to fab something up to make them work was all I needed to know to make my decision.

They didn't look too bad either.
