FC rear seat question?

I did a few searchs..."rear seats / back seats / JDM seats" but could not find answers.

I just picked up some rear seats for my FC and I was wondering if they are called JDM rear seats or were they offered in USDM cars? (not that it really matters, just curious)

I only bought them so I can legally put my kids car seat back there. Mom hates the car as it is but I refuse to sell it! I already know regular people cant use them from what I hear?

How much should I sell the bins for? I am open to trades too.

i wouldnt call it safe. the rear seats feel like you are sitting in a 5 gallon bucket.

I dont think there is enough flat area to properly secure a baby seat.

the rear seats for these cars are just bins that they called "seats"

and yes, US market cars did come with them also.

You missed the front passenger seat. I wonder how you became a valedictorian in pre-school.

Thanks for the helpful info...I think I will be fine. All I need to do is buckle down the baby seats "base" and the seat clips in and out of that base. By the looks of that pic with all the people in the back, there should be enough room for a 15lb baby.
