When you find the seat be sure to install it to factory specs for safety.
You don't want it ripping loose in an accident.

On the '82 there may not be seat tracks (at least there were none on my
previous '84, but they are there between the floor panels on my "new" '85).

If you don't have seat tracks bolt it down through the floor with large
washers underneath and locking nuts.  Just be careful where you drill!
Makes it useless for camping, but it will be safe.

It's too bad this wasn't offered as an option with the full camper version
of the Westy. I had one in the EVC I once owned and it was great, as long as
you didn't need to get into the fridge!

Subject: Middle seat for westy? Is there room?

Hello, I was wondering does or can a middle seat "2 seater" fit with the
refrigerator, stove, sink setup? The reason is my wife is pregnant with
twins and would like to setup up some kid seats. If so what is the size twin
seats I should be looking for?

Thanks,
