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.

Ok in this tread if you look at post #21 this is the build I was talking about.

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...ght=astro+seat

He doesnt have a link to his build thread in his signature, but I clicked on his avatar, then his statistics and then threads started by him and found "1950 Hotrod project"

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=435302

Thats where he originally posted it up. Hope this helps!
