    Looks very nice. Any chance you have any shots of the brackets on bottom of seat? My van was ordered with only the drivers seat. I have nothing on the passanger side, no hardware, or brackets. When my pennies build back up, I want to get a passenger seat installed. Scooby is tired of setting on a bean bag. Smile

    Not a bad price! How did you get the yellow ones? I see only black listed on their site.

    There are some photos of the underside of these seats in their instructions:

    Those seats on the Summit site also have instructions with pictures:

    Finally a pic of the adapters. I used some cold rolled steel channel to relocate the mounting holes. I thought I had more pictures but I could not find them.

    I used seats from a 92 Mitsubishi eclipse, they are perfectly suited to our vans dimentions.

    bugeye bob wrote:Great looking seat but for those of us on a budget the best bet is pull a part type yards, most seats are about $30. a piece. The seats I am looking at are Chrysler Intrepid they are going to be a close fit and I know the brackets are going to need to be reworked but they are leather and super nice and electric, I really like the headrest and are very simular to the wife Chrysler 300m seats other then they may not be heated seats - wow that would be nice in winter time. So if the rain lets up i'm headed to the junkyard tommorrow with wrench in hand.
    Mitsubishi eclipse seats are a almost perfect drop in.i mounted the adjusting tracs directly to them and they are great
