Default got some racing seats...now i got some ?'s

well i just got some racing seats.....they are brand Ractive....i got them for free from work (used my car in a promotional show thing) so i can't complain
i really think they are made by another big name seat brand and jsut have their logo on it
anyways i did some research and i couldn't get all my questions answered so here we go
1)are the bottom of my seats the same as most others?
2)if so would you suggest me just getting some generic seat brackets for our cars that also take into consideration the seatbelts
3)i saw some of you fabricated factory brackets and sliders to work...would you suggest that in this situation?
4)i have a friend that welds...should we just attmept to make our own brackets? (they would probably be stronger and better made than some of what i have seen online so far)

thanx for the help

I know people who have made their own brackets with no problems.

i made mine, the part of the seat belt that attaches to the stock seat, take that off, and drill a hole in your custom bracket, and bolt it on
