Mounting Tillet seats

[7 wonders of the world]

Does anyone mount there Tillet directly to the floor ie without using either adjustable  runner or the ally box sections?

Aside from the lack of mounting surface area has anyone suffered any problems with floor deformation?

When it was still mounted my passenger seat sat on two strips of 4mm(h) x 35mm(w) aluminium that appeared to be bonded to the lowered floor, the bolts passed through the strip and the floor no deformation even after squeezing a 100kg passenger in and taking him round the track. Not directly to the floor though.

Thanks Albert, that's the sort of thing I was thinking off as I know the lowered floors are a thicker gauge sheet but you cant really use the normal U section channel under the car as you'd rip it off.

I'll get some strip form my local engineering place, might even go wider than the 35mm and I'll order a pack of Tillet spacers to set the seat angle too.
