Yes, swings with the door, also quite high to keep departure angle

Would love to see more and if you've got any plans etc - are you able to share? Might be worth going with that for mine.

Fortunately, no. The Exmoor seats have an engineering certificate that comes with it. It is discussed on their website in quite some detail. The seats I ordered are the premium high back second row seats. These are their recommended replacement if you are wanting to upgrade from the the 60/40 bench.

Do these seats use the original mounting points?

Either way in qld you would still need the to go through the approval process and have a blue plate fitted and registration details changed

Tyres.
Radius and Panhard Bushes.
Ignition Barrel.
Rear main seal.
Slave and master cylinder.
Sump gasket.
A frame ball joint.
Rear brakes, pads and rotors.
All fluids...

Heading off along the Bight, Twilight Cove to Broke Inlet over New Years...

Had a Long Ranger tank fitted (120ltr). ARB did it as I didnt have the time. Only problem was I then had to change the towbar to a 130" as the old one fouled on the tank. One thing I dont like is it hangs low and the sway bar even lower on the spacer blocks they fitted. I might pull the sway bar and brackets off and see if I notice any difference. Pulled the back seats out, on "A temporary basis" and now making a storage system for all the camping gear for trips without the camper. Looking a a water bladder that fits on the floor I can cover up, so I can load gear on top of it. Found one which should fit, just waiting for a reply from seller.
