Subject:      installing a jumpseat in a westy
Comments: To: JordanVw@aol.com

Hullo all,
I'm intalling a jumpseat in my westy.  Suprisingly there isn't a step by
step on jumpseat installation in the archives.

It's late night in the garage. I have the battery out (PITA).
I was getting ready to drill the holes for the support bracket that attaches
to the battery casing.  Then I noticed the gas expansion/evaporation tank
that sits under the passenger seat wheel well.  How do you navigate that?
Do you skip the bolt and drill in a self tapping screw?  Any thoughts?
Thanks,
luke

you dont need these.  you have a westy. it has a plywood (formica or rubber
covered) subfloor. drill corresponding holes in the plywood where the nibs
touch the floor and  spend your time on something else :<)
