A slider plate to which a vehicle seat can be mounted includes a first channel for slidably engaging the first slider guide and a second channel for slidably engaging the second slider guide such that the slider plate is slidable between a first position and a second position relative to the seat mount. A locking lever is movably coupled to the slider plate and includes a locking structure to prevent the slider plate from moving relative to the seat mount. A control member operatively coupled to the locking lever to cause the locking lever to move toward an unlocked position wherein the locking structure allows the slider plate to move relative to the seat mount. In some examples, a trim piece is adapted to at least partially cover fasteners mounting the assembly to a vehicle support surface.
