Where do these go?

Working on interior. Dug these out in the parts that came with the car and cannot figure out or find where they belong. There are 2 similar aluminum parts that mount to the front lower seat frame.

Oops...

There is also trim that goes on the back of the seat on either side. If you post a pic of all of the trim we can help you figure out what goes where.

Ok, I will do that, the other pair goes on the lower frame and wrap around it on the front. Do these go on the seat back, vertically on the door side?

Correct. Here's a picture of a 63, but you get the idea.

Thank you very much.
The other question is mounting? I find no info in factory manuals, is there a PIM for Fisher stuff?
One of the lowers has a bracket or piece of one. Did not figure on the gap between the 2 being so close.
Very cool look they give.
Gotta remind my self to use the resources of sales info.

The top one in your picture has two holes in it for pan head sheet metal screws. I'm not sure how the bracket works. All of the ones in my 71 98 use sheet metal screws.

If your interior has been redone it might be hard to find the holes in the seat frame under the upholstery for the sheet metal screws. I suggest using a small needle or awl to poke the upholstery until you find the hole. If all else fails you can use double sided emblem tape to secure them to the seat. Tacky; I know, but it will get the job done in a pinch

I'm working on the frames now, got distracted and thought I better check how these fit and mount before I go to messin with the upholstery.

I ain't searching for perfection. I only expect perfection when I have to pay someone to do it. I am looking for adequate and decent for the money I put in it. The whole car will only look like a rebuilt car with some miles already on it.
