You'll find that you'll need to get new compliance plates and get you mod engineered an certified as the DX was only ever meant to carry 5 passengers......... as for mounting the rear seats, sorry I don't know but hopefully someone who does will come along soon

HI Mate It’s a bit different in Tassie I just need to have it approved by a Motor Trimmer/ Upholstery business that has Transport approval.

I thought the same thing with the engineer but after some ringing around I found out the above. :-)

All the holes will be there. You may have to get some brackets which will bolt to the floor then the seats will mount to them. See if someone can post some photos of their patrol with rear seats fitted and their mounting.

Hi bushytas,

I took some photos of the rear of my car. The seat has been taken out. There is a side mounting on the wheel arch and a u bolt for the floor. The seat must have a side mounting point and a floor locking mechanism.

There is a thread about fitting dickie seats to a DX on the Patrol4x4 forum, but enter at own risk. The site is still full of nasties.
