You try to always re-use the rails off the current bucket seats so that it bolts into the same holes.
Some seats will be wider or have holes that the rails almost bolt up to the new seat, so a bracket will have to be fashioned to reach one or two of the bolt holes on the seat that the original rails can't reach.
WARNING: They have to be strong and look stock, it wont pass an engineers if it isn't (not that it bothers some people)

I also know there is a seat blank plate that can be bought from places like Revolution Racegear (I think) that has numerous holes drilled all over a thick plate the same size as your seat (or slighly larger) so you can bolt your runners to the seat bracket (flat bit of metal with holes) then you place it on the seat, line up the bolt holes and put it all together.
This I think is the easiest, especially if you want to change seats regularly ie race fixed to adjustable bucket.
Stuffed if I know where you can get them from now and how much tho.
