MG Midget and Sprite Technical - Midget seat runners

Hi
Can anyone help me with the seat runners on a 72 midget. Do the seat runners bolt directly to the floor or are there any wooden slats and aluminium spacers as found on an MGB/C.

David, they all bolt directly through the carpet to the floor. Carpet gets wet, stays wet, runners rust. There must be a better way.

Thanks. I will put them in this weekend and try to avoid the rain

I slit the carpets along the length of the runners from the rear. Just leave the strips joined by the section in front of the runners. Then, when they do get wet the carpets pull out forwards and get hung out to dry.
