I did lower rear floor pan 1” to allow enough head room with helmet and roll cage.
Had to machine up side mounts.

My super-dooper lightweight came with TTR 26R seats - very pretty, but not legal, I would guess. The Tillet is on my radar (in about a year, if things go to schedule). It also came with a Safety Devices cage, which doesn't fit me very well, so I'll be following your lead and custom making one, but reading the latest regs leads me to think it will be hard to make it compliant.
