    Wonder why it cuts off the pics? Too large of a format, I assume. Let me try again...

    They're fixed back buckets from Mastercraft Safety. I picked them up off of Craigslist in trade for an electric downrigger I had but never used. They're 20 inches wide, so it's a little tight on the passenger side, but it works. I fabricated some brackets where needed. Took me a few hours and I was done. If you want more pics of the mounting, just let me know and I'll snap a few more shots for ya!
