As the title says, I am looking for a picture of the bucket seat reinforcement plate location in a 71 B body (charger if it matters). I see USCT sells a kit but I am trying to work out where they would go.

Thanks
 
It may be pictured in the FSM. If you dont have one I can look at mine when I get back later
 
I can get you pics in the morning.

I appreciate the responses.

I looked at the factory books and finally found a pic of sorts in the assembly manual and I found a pic online of a guy putting a 4spd hump into a 71 Charger and it showed the brackets.

So, next question is how thick are those plates? I am just going to make some out of 14g sheet metal I think.
 
14ga sounds about right.

That’s the USCT brackets I welded into my 72. I haven’t mic’d them, but in the hand they felt the same thickness as the 11ga sheet I’ve been using for other stuff. Definitely thicker than 14ga.
