    A bloke I met at the ballarat holden day had a bench seat put in sideways. He said that it was easier to engineer that way, but I cant remember why..

    I saw this one at Ballarat as well, the benchy takes up a lot of room. The dickie seat I got is much smaller and lower with the seat belts built in. Does the sideways seat ease the engineering/access issue? Cheers, Jez

    Yeah he did have this engineered. he said a mate of his did it for him and this was the only way he'd sign off on it. I cant remember why though.. he did tell me but I forgot what he said. Beer brained my broken... You might be right though, cos I think he did mention something about easy access/egress...

    Maybe because the seat runners line up with cross members under floor.

    I spoke about this to an engineer recently. Access is the biggest issue....... also need a roll cage. The pic above is probably the only way you would pass installing a back seat, legally....assuming he has built it correctly.

    I wonder how you would go if you had Monaro buckets in an HQ?
    I mean HQ Monaro buckets in the front, ie the ones that flip forward.

    I enquired about putting seats in the back of my Hiace and to get it passed I needed to fit opening windows in the back.
