The back seats *are* comfortable if you fit.

Looks like it might go now that i see it, i think i was just putting it in backwards but there is still the hole for where the back seat latch attached to. I just took the parts out of storage (was going to redo the color from that god awful burgundy). Once it stops raining I am going to make sure of my dunceness and put all the stuff back in.... all that I think is needed now is just the carpet with the holes for the actual bins.
Also thanks for challenging me on this in a civil way, good to see that I am wrong... let me be able to find out my error and help other people if they have problems.

Ahh, that makes sense. I think the trick is to put the plastic trim on the sides on first and the frame for the bins fit fairly snugly right on top. And yeah, I've still got the whole for the latch, too. What did you do about the seatbelt mounting holes? Those holes look like they go completely through the frame. I covered mine up with duct tape. I know it's not much, but it'll keep water from splashing in and pooling on the metal underneath the bins.

I just put the seat belt bolts back in. You could cut them shorter if you're worried about them hitting the driveshaft.
