The best idea I have seen was to add a 3rd position to the 2 person
middle seating area. Take an extra 2 person GL middle seat and cut it in
half, leaving enough fabric hanging on the bottom to fold over and tuck
in to cover the padding. The seatback part is easy since the GL model
has separate sections for each passenger so no cutting is needed there.
You can then slide the saved section onto the floor tracks first, all
the way to the wall and then slide the 2 person seat on next. Look at
how the seat belts attach before any cutting is done, so you can have a
stock seatbelt for the 1 person seat.
