Thanks, They look good now, but it looked like a family of pigs were slaughtered on them when I pulled them from the junk yard. ( it was dried mud from being crashed into a swampy ditch ) honestly even at $30 I wasn't sure they were worth the money in that condition but they ended up great. The cool thing is they recline and are extremely comfy. The down side is they only tilt forward not fold in half and tilt like the newer year models.

Access to the 3rd row and 3rd row seating was not a big concern for me so I moved them back about 6" which gives the 2nd row passangers limo like leg room. It also allows them to fold forward far enough forward that I can still turn the back into a sleeping ( or large cargo ) area.

Bonus is the area between the front and rear seats is also a good cargo area for hauling the groceries and what not as I tend to keep the rear cargo area packed with gear and tools.
