If it were me this would be my course of action

  1. Remove stock seats
  2. Remove base mounts from stock seats by the best means possible (I don't know if they bolt on or are welded)
  3. Put the bare mounts back in the truck and bolt as you would regularly
  4. Remove base mounts from new leather seats by best means available (I don't know if these are welded or bolt on either!)
  5. Test fit the new seats to the old bases
  6. Modify and attach as required...
Beyond that, I don't know!
