My wife thought she was picking up a bargain second row seat but it was actually a rear foldaway for a CSW Puma. Has anyone got experience adapting these? They look like they might be okay one way or another but I don’t want to tear them to bits and make them worthless just to find out they won’t pass an MOT (moving back to the UK soon).

Dont fit seatbelts to them and you will be ok.
I want them in the second row, so I need the seatbelts. I want to fit them to the tumble seats frame.

Sorry, thought you were putting it/them in the back.

Eh???
Front facing rear seats in a 90 are horrid. No way to get in or out. Late model factory models have different seat boxes/wheel arches. But still horrid. Side facing seats are perfectly fine and legal and if you don’t fit seatbelts they don’t need to be worn.

I agree that most retrofit installations are actually dangerous as often the only way in or out is to fold up one seat. So there's no way to quickly exit the vehicle in an emergency! The best thing to do with forward-facing aftermarket seats is to install them facing backwards. Then access is simple through the back door.
