    Are these bolt-in or weld-in? If bolt-in, can they be welded? Got any pix?

    Thanks!

    My floor needed a little work with a B.F.H. tool!
    They fit good but will gusset them at the subframe with flat plates.

    Thanks alot for the pics. I have had a set of those for along time but never had them installed because I keep thinking I`d be happier with some "through the floor" type connectors. I had wondered if the C.E. connectors would "hang down " too much and be too visable when looking at the car from the side.

    What is "gusseted" when you refer to SFCs?
