[urq] Seat Bracket Question

The OEM seats are the same minus the latching mechanism.  The 4000 seat has the
hniges, but they are locked in place.  It would not be a difficult task to make
them fold forward again... more difficult, but certainly not very hard, would
be retrofitting them with the latches.

Obviously, with aftermarket seat, YMMV.  The folding forward part is in the
seat itself, not in the tracks.  Most seem to be made for coupes, so check with
the manufactuer...but at $78, I'd say you're looking at a solid seat. Heck, the
JC Whitney ABS plastic seats with a cover are that much!
