Subject:      floor tracks for single captain's chair
Content-type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

we picked up our single captain's chair on our los angeles trip ten days ago, and i don't quite understand how it is to go into our westy. bentley has nothing on it.

i understood there were supposed to be some tracks with it, but all it came with was the crossbars welded to the box at the bottom that have holes in them. they look like they would slipfit over some sort of track, but also look like they would just bolt into the boltholes on the floor.

we have that nice 3/8" plywood sheet as a floor of our westy, which i assume i have to drill through in either case. do the tracks get bolted to the floor, the seat slipped onto them, and the seat bolted through the crossbars and tracks into the floor boltholes?

and, if i need the tracks/bolts, where can i find them? still a dealer item? or do they come easily used out of a regular 7-passenger van?

thanks. bill '87 syncro westfalia http://www.scruznet.com/~kasper/pics/westy/ check out the scorpio wheels on my syncro...add scorpio.jpg, scorpio2.jpg, or scorpios.jpg to the above URL
