No more hole in floor...

I was sold the wrong seat bracket so I couldn't put my nice new seats in.

I also got an Amazon battery tie down that was pretty snazzy.

Was it the back right leg near seatbelt that was wrong?

He sold me a passenger side. So I have a spare passenger if anyone needs it. Not in great condition though.

More progress on seat but didn't finish.

Floor patch with nut welded on bottom.

The bases of these seats are an inch wider than the YJ seat, so I'm going to have to make a plate for the left slider to make up the difference. Dropped it in so I could drive it back to its parking spot.

Finished up the seat mounts with a couple tabs welded to the sliders.

With the seat slid all the way back it just touches the roll bar, and it slides plenty forward.

Then went for a ride and got the kids to take their first try at driving a manual.
