if you source some mk3 golf recaro subframes, you should be able to unbolt the ones from the ford seats, and they should fit in fine. Failing that, anyone with a welder should be able to weld some normal mk3 subframes on, or just adapt them somehow.

Attaching them to a normal mk3 subframe will do the trick

Leisure trim have done a great job of my interior, really happy with it 
Only down side was the timescale... I was told it would take a week - I had the interior back on the 11th week
