My HG ute bench seat doesn't fold down.
Other styles i've heard of is an XF one, but apparently it's difficult to pull the handbrake on with the door closed.

If the base is one section and there's a rear section for pass and driver with a shorter fold down section in the middle its a premier version and the pass and driv side recline - dont they??

still want to keep the bench seat layout but thought i would test out the idea of some WB buckets ith a connodore bench seat insert from something like a VP ute

Didnt want to spend much just to try it out so have kept an eye out for some cheap seats

Just won these for a whopping $21.00 and they're 10mins from my place Smile

I think my dad still has my VH SLE seats in the shed. He lives in Baulkham Hills.

The rails on my XH (same as above) are 1220mm apart.
Hope that helps.

I can't get a straight measurement in the car because of the tranny hump. It is a rough measurement to the holes/bolts.
