Subject:Re: Weekender seat/bed into my '81--How do you install it?

The seat is a bolt in installation, except for the pins located
at the top of the seat back. These pins must be moved. You must remove
the plate from the donor, and weld them into your Van. This is a
reletively simple thing to do, if you have welding experience.
