  Well, now,  aren't we chipper!  :<)
  oh, and I do agree that LT abortions are a bad thing, but that's
  another
  topic for another list...
  you still haven't stated if you have a full westy or not.
  I know in '85, on the full GL westy's  there were the filler strips
  in tracks
  in the floor.
  these filler strips were here for the very reason of sliding in a
  middle
  seat.
  Now, I haven't looked under the carpet in a '87 or other year westy
  GL's
  recently, but I don't see why it should be any different.

  please state if you have a westy GL or not.

  Oh, and by the way, you have a nice day!  :<)

 My non Westi '81 has the two strips that hold the middle seat in place
after removing the fiberboard. Oh by the way dont tell me to have a nice
day, I wont have one if I dont want to.  ;<)
