Lonn:
No idea what holes the slider rails use. I always look for the
"witness marks" where the original bolts tore up the surface. The seat
bottom cutaway is toward the tunnel. The seat back adjusters go towards the
middle.
The transmission tunnel is the forward stop. The rails do have a
rectangular stop on one side, but if I remember correctly this goes to the
rear.
For a short driver, raising the rails slightly by doubling up the
wooden and associated alloy spacers works wonders. The seat will slide
forward a bit more. It sure beats 2x4s on the pedals.
