The brackets on those seats do not line up with factory holes. You need to take the seat rails off of your stock seats, remove the brackets on the APC seats, and mount the stock brackets. However, the mounting holes do not line up with the tracks from our cars. You will need to drill new holes in the APC seats where their brackets were attached, and make the mounting holes in the stock thirdgen brackets significantly wider.
I'm assuming your power seat tracks mount up the same as the manual seat tracks, which they probably do.
