As Heard pointed-out, compare the two pictures. In his pic of the seat bottom, the T5 shifter will come out of the floor just slightly forward of the mechanical brake arm that has all of that bailing wire wrapped-around it. Compare the square and round holes in the frame rail. I estimate that it's roughly 6" or 7" behind the stock Ford location. DD
