03 Astrovan Seats Done!! My Blazer seats 6!!

1 more weekend, 1 more thing to check off my list of things to do on the Blazer. Yup, my back seats are in and the seat installing is done. So the front are 02 Silverado and the rear I got from an 03 Astro Van. $100 at the wreckers. Not bad. Anyhow, the stock brackets for these seats have hooks at the front and the back. The hooks at the back have a locking mechanism to hold them in place. I cut the bottom ~4 inches off and kept most of the bracket so it would still slide up and back. I then put some large 3.5" angle iron at the back and the front. Used these as mounting points. Check it out.
Tell me what you think. Oh and no comments about the carpet. It was some I had laying around after a remodel.

Here's a shot from the back. This seat fits perfect between the wheel wells.


Quick shot of the rear mounting point. Both brackets are exactly the same. Chevy didn't make them side specific so both mounting points are on the same side of the brackets. You can kinda see it in the first pic.


With the rear seat slid all the way up there is about 6 more inches of cargo room.


This seat was originally installed with sholder belts. I wanted to use all lap belts across the back for car seats. This worked out really well because there is a mounting point on the outside of the seat under a plastic cover.
