Planted Seat Bracket - Ford Thunderbird (1967-1971) - Driver/Left
This Planted driver-side bracket gives the 1967-1971 Ford Thunderbird a rigid, vehicle-specific base for an aftermarket seat, with no floor modification. Construction is 3/16" laser-cut steel, hand-welded and powder-coated black, with Standard slider patterns. It's a clean way to add modern support to a classic build.

Disclaimers:
- Seats come in many different shapes and sizes, so not all seats will fit in all vehicles. It is up to the end user to determine if the seat will fit before ordering the seat bracket and other components.
- Many vehicles have the steering wheel offset toward the center of the vehicle. This can be accentuated when installing an aftermarket seat of a different size than the factory seat.
- Replacing a factory seat with an aftermarket seat may cause the vehicle's warning indicators to activate. This can be due to airbag, weight and/or other sensors in the factory seat that are not included in an aftermarket seat. It may be possible to eliminate these indicators with an electronic resistor, but it is up to the end user to determine if a resistor will work and which resistor to use.
- Professional installation is recommended.
Classic cars like the 1967-1971 Ford Thunderbird were built long before modern seat design, and the original seats offer little support by today's standards. Whether it's a restomod, a vintage racer or a weekend driver, an aftermarket seat transforms the driving position.
Planted develops every bracket with the vehicle in its shop, using the actual floor as the reference rather than a drawing. The bracket is laser-cut from 3/16" steel, hand-welded in the USA for full weld penetration and finished in black powder coat. Each one goes through three stages of quality control before it ships.
The top plate is pre-slotted for the slider patterns used by Recaro, Sparco, OMP, Cobra, Corbeau, Momo, NRG, Racetech and most other major seat brands. This is the Standard bolt-pattern bracket, which includes the Recaro pattern. Wide Cobra and Scheel-Mann sliders need one hole per slider elongated by 1/8". There's extra material to drill a less common pattern, or to mount a seat or side mounts directly without sliders.
This is the driver/left bracket, sold individually. The passenger side is SB232PA. Confirm your seat's dimensions against the cabin before ordering. Removing the factory seat can trigger airbag or occupancy warning lights, which may need a resistor. Professional installation is recommended.
