I will take pictures tomorrow when it's light out. I had my buddy cut out the brackets out of a suburban and just weld the pieces in place. He did admit that it was a bear to get the brackets out individually. The junk yard would not let him use any torches so it was with a battery powered sawzall that he cut everything out. It may have been better to just take the entire back section out of the donor car.

The only thing I don't like is that seat can't stand completely upright due to the integrated seat belt holder. It does lean a little backwards, but it is a breeze to get in and out. Also, if you are pulling the seats in and out a lot the split seats are a good option. I have the full bench and my daughter loves it.
