forget about having a split/fold back seat in a T44 or V8. There's a 
massive steel wall in the way. Cutting up the support behind the rear 
seat in the sedan will adversely impact structural integrity of the car. 
This thing is an integral part of the whole unibody and should really 
not be tampered with. C4 rear seats (the back) are less wide and less 
"high" than the ones in the Type 44. They don't really fit.
