Astro seat
So I just scored a near perfect '99 Astro van 3rd row seat for my 3100.
Woo hoo - happy birthday to me !!! Anyway, can any one who is using this seat post some pics of what you did for mounting brackets? Thanks. |

Re: Astro seat
Last pm I sent was the cost for shipping the window parts. Didn't hear back so I didn't ship them.
So you cut the seat frame? Do you mean the hooks where they mount into the Astro's floor? How about some pictures |

Re: Astro seat
I've seen a thread on here of a nice install. I think he said he cut 2 inches off the bottom. he did a nice job of following the contour of the floor to. If he doesn't respond with a link i'll try to locate it for you.
