Seat base plates???

Are these even needed? I could never get them to look/sit right.

Considering there is a plastic covering on the front, and the back is out of sight due to the seat when reclined, I never installed mine after installing my replacement carpet.
 
I had to fit them on rear of the driver's seat to raise the height of the seat slightly - to stop the seat base fouling the carpet on the transmission tunnel when it was at its most rearward position.
If i recall correctly, I used 2 under each bolt?
