Can you show a picture with seat forward and folded? Just so I can see how much access it gives.

Thanks

not really... you can add wiring and switches to manually control the motors... just like they did pre bcm on all motorized seats. just have t be cognizant of the internal airbags

also the 200 seats come in cloth with manual adjustments as well(at least the used too)

To adjust it yes, but then there is the belt retractor.

Basic point being there are simpler options and it isn't a simple bolt in/ connect a pos and ground and be about your business type of swap.

Re: seating options in a 72 blazer

I'm liking the Jeep seats. It's been so long, I don't recall how the seats in my YJ flipped up. But those look like enough room.

Re: seating options in a 72 blazer

i wonder how hard it would be to adapt the tumble seats to sliders and have best of both worlds. They look bad ass

Re: seating options in a 72 blazer

best ive liked so for for the rear bench is third row Tahoe seats from the 07+. theyre low back with low profile shoulder belts built in. And if you can find them the center seat on some is a stationary console with cup holders.

Re: seating options in a 72 blazer

gfreeze, that is exactly what I will be doing to mine. Did you have any issues with cutting the floor (avoiding stuff underneath)?
