Bit of an odd one. I have done a body swap and chop on the GQ. The original car was a 1997 model and I have used that interior. The donor was a 1991 body, that was chopped. Today I started the final prep before driving it out of the shed and getting ready for VASS engineering. I tried to get the rear seats to latch onto the floor latches, using the 1997 back seats and the 1997 catches. They required the mounting holes slotted to get the latch to land in the middle of the seat catch. All looking good except the seat catch wont receive the latch on the floor. I stuffed around for 6 hrs with this today, tried all sorts of packing and optimisation, had @AB and @MB have a look, baffling. I am fabricating a floor stiffener tomorrow morning as a packer to go right across the rear floor and pick up the two floor catches i case the floor is flexing.
Has anyone come across this before? the 1991 floor catch is way too short to operat1991 in front 1997 in rear.jpge and too low in height to pick up the seat catch. Couple of pics for clarity. I need a solution or the car wont pass the inspection.
