The problem is safety. If you just hack some mounts down which aren't engineered to withstand increased forces, as seen in a crash, you could seriously hurt yourself.
But removing the front/rear crash bars are different? I would do like Tim is suggesting, find proper mounts.

I have a Yonaka Motorsports Intercooler (Harrison Boyce should chime in) and the quality is great. Really nice welds, and just an overall good core. Comparable to Kinetic.
Therefore, I don't see their seats being of lesser quality.

I had the same problem with high seats in my 2g. Turns out that the chassis has a roughly 12.5" flat span where a seat is, followed by a large upward bend on each side. Basically these aftermarket rails mount on the top of these upward bends. This is due to the fact that on average the sliders on aftermarket seats are about 14" apart so they cant fit in the 12.5" gap. Im actually in the process of finding seats with sliders that fit the gap. This should bring the seat down a good 3 inches.
