fold-down seat

[RoyLuke]

Happy Christmas All !!!!!!

I have a 96 Disco I, very generic.

At the salvage yard I found a Disco I that had the fold-down seat in the boot. It had already been removed so the attaching hardware was missing and worst of all I couldn't see how it was attached because they had taken just about everything in the area out already.

Does anyone know how to install the seat without the air conditioning system?
I don't want to butcher up the paneling so I need some advice.

TNX,
Roy :victory:

Who do you plan on having sit back there? Your mother-in-law?

Actually, the fold-down seats in the back aren't too bad. I sat in one for 2.5 hours once. The turns come very scary from that perch, though.

I meant from a safety standpoint I wouldn't put anybody I care about in the D1 jumpseats.

Why? For most practical purposes, these are safer than sitting in the backseat of a taxicab without a seat belt. And you aren't likely to carry 7 adults in a D1 across Rubicon trail or the like.

My favorite purpose of these is a 5-minute group ride to the bar in the mountain ski area with one designated driver (or decoy).

I put one kid in the back of mine, But its a D2, so it might be a tad safer.

Forward facing with a shoulder belt vs sideways facing with a lapbelt.
I pulled all my jump seats, I'd rather have the storage.

Today I am going to try to see what is behind the panel. Hopefully it will be obvious how the seat is attached.

Good luck. I've removed and installed three of these seats, and every time this Erector set had me thinking.
