I have a set from a Mitsubishi Eclipse that went in very easily.    For the drivers side it could have been as easy as drilling two holes and bolting it down.  But I am 6'5" so I wanted it lower and further back than stock.  I ended up using the front stock mounts and cutting out the stock rear mounts then bolting the rear less than an inch off the floor.  This gives the bottom of the seat about a 3" tilt...very comfortable.  
For the passenger side I used a 2" lift in the front and about an inch in the back.  All 4 bolts right through the floor.
The only real problem is the seats are so nice I hate to get them muddy, so the doors stay on when I go off road.

I been installing the dodge/plymouth neon seats in sammy. Not real hard. Not a direct bolt in, but with just a little work they fit good. Makes for a better ride.
