Not sure if there are the same padeyes on the Outback, but on my Hobie Adventure there were stock 2 padeyes right behind the seat that were perfect to attach to. If there aren't on yours, you might want to consider adding a couple stainless or brass ones where the seat buckles would naturally attach to. Before I had it adusted correctly, I tried attaching the aftermarket seat using the Hobie posts screwed into my new seat, but that didn't work too well.

My personal preference is to have the back straps on the seat as tight as they can possibly go, so there is no way the bottom of the seat can move on you. Once you get the new seat dialed in once, it is a whole night and day difference vs. the old stock seat.
