Aftermarket seat mounts and rails

Hello to all!
I just bought some aftermarket bucket seats for the truck. What I was curious about was how have other people mounted these in there car as they do not fit the factory rails? Any help or ideas on a design to make a seat base up would be great. Thanks for the help.

Hey Frigga,
I have a set of saas Vortek's. They dont have mounts or anything on them, just the seats.
