A newbie needs help. I have an original rear seat bottom half. Can I use a bay window top half and weld in the brackets for the luggage bars? How about the mounting points. I would like it to finish up looking like it was the proper seat for a '66 deluxe.

The Bay Window back seat back rest is narrower so there will be a 1" gap on each side. It will not really look right.
