Does this mean that using my driftworks subframe (http://www.driftworks.com/catalog/pr...ight-side.html) is no good?

Not actually measured its moutning surface but not sure it will be 5 inch square?
I had similar concerns earlier this year with the EDC regs. The answer from Marc (Scrutineer) was that as long as the seat is secure then it will be fine. The 5" plates are to be used if the seat is bolted directly through the floor rather than on the original seat mounting points.

Just quote and give us a if this still applies Marc, saves your poor little fingers from wearing out.
