g'day gents, wondering if there is anyone out there that would want to swap all parts involved in changing my buckets (that are like new) to a bench seat arrangement. they will also get a RMW canvas seat cover to suit the bucket and i would also be willing to travel but not inter state so anyone who can help me out please give me a buzz as my family has grown and i need the extra seat cheers...G

Graham I will get the seat/s out of the shed and the seatbelts etc that go with it.
It did have a seat cover but I now remember giving it to a mate so I will have to check what state its in.
Will put up some photos on here for you to assess.
The network is working a treat TD, what do you reckon?

Here you are Graham,
Seat, Belts and gear shift surround.
The seat and belts could do with a good clean as they have been on the storage shelf in the roof of my shed for 3 years.
Will try cleaning the belts for you but the seats will probably need to be done with a upholstery cleaning machine at a car wash, be a better looking job. Could always fit a seat cover.

Are the bolts stuck in the back of the seatbelts?

Macca, could I trouble you for a closeup photo of how the two stalks fit together at the bolt end: ie spacers / washers?

Not sure if that's how it was as I pulled it apart to get it through the seat. The centre One are both marked "centre".

A thousand thanks!

I'm doing the same as the op, putting in a 3/4 bench seat. I have the seat, but needed confirmation about the seatbelts, specifically what hardware was used with the bolts. Now I know the bolts, seatbelts and hardware I'm looking for.

Yes I don't think they are in original order, but the arrangement is fairly logical. .

P4trol, One of the pieces that bolt to the floor has a washer as part of it, the black one in the pic.

Graham I gernied the belts and they look a lot better.

Im real happy with what was left in my shed and the bits that were to go into the ute are now in place and look great.
Hope Graham and Kelly are just as happy.
