SO I got my seats in but my seat bases have no covers or brackets. Does anyone have a good source where I could get those?

You just drill through the regular military seat plates and bolt them in. I have them in all 4 seats of one of my HMMWVs

What brackets are those? Just got my 998 today, came with Smottybilt 44901 seats not installed and no brackets...

For the passenger side, there is little room if the batteries are under the seat, just bolt it to the fiberglass cover

Thanks! Can you bolt direct to the seat boxes for the back seat install as well?

For my driver seat, I mounted on a Sentry Safe electronic lock box. Square steel box, stronger than factory and fit pretty close to perfect. I can't figure out how to post pictures from the mobile, but the SentrySafe is about 8"H x 16"W x 14"D, worked with my smittybilt and gives a much needed place to lock up belongings.

That’s a great idea. How did your seats fit with the 3 point belts? Can’t get the passenger side to fit back far enough without removing the belt tensioner...
Way more than “just bolt them in” that I read in some other threads...

I had to "persuade" them a bit. But they did eventually go in fine. There's a little give to the back cushion on these seats you just have to give it some wear-in. Now that they are in, they don't impede my seat belts at all. But then again, there may be some manufacturing differences from one unit to another
