dont you know?  you just rip up the carpet like everyone else does..it's
simple :<)
seriously tho, did you check the archives? i think "middle seat removal" is
in there next to "whats that mysterious silver socket on my dash?" :<)
1)remove alum door sill. 2) roll back carpet. 3) remove four 13mm bolts that
hold seat to tracks. 4) remove corkboard to right of seat. 5) slide seat out
of van. 6) Get a hernia. 7) lay there incapacitated on the driveway for hours
with a 100lb vanagon middle seat on top of you. 8) finally get up and drag
the seat upstairs into the living room, park it un front of the TV and try to
convince your wife it will "make a really cool loveseat"  "Look hunny, it
stands up by itself, matches the sofa (sort of) and has seatbelts to keep me
restrained when the EAGLES make the winning touchdown at the superbowl!
and you wont mind if i spill beer on it either.  "

happy friday
