[V8] rear power seats.

[Ron Wainwright]

OK...so one more question..well a few more questions &
a comment ;-)......
 Ok so the rear divider (seat back structure) is the
same if the sunshade is manual or power rite? Just the
trim pieces are different & obviousley the parcel
shelf is reinforced for the motor to mount to?

 As far as the power seats. How is the seat subframes
mounted to the rear? Are there certain mounting points
that obviousley aren't on the "normal" rear seat
setups?
 & was there a Connely stitch option for the rear
power seats? Since I assume the Lang had the Connely
seat stitching...rite?

 & since your shades for the side windows aren't
FS...how bout you hook me up with a set of those Euro
16x8 BBs mesh wheels...LOL
