I also had to have six seats in my '73 Westy.  The easiest way is to just 
get an extra back seat seatbelt and fasten it in next to the closet.  The 
left side (facing forward) has a mount next to the existing belt and the 
right side mount is back inside the closet.  Snake it up through the seat 
and you have three seats across the couch, one in the rear facing seat and 
two in the front.
