That's what I want to do - put in 2 rear-facing jumpseats. My oldest
daughter will be driving soon and we won't need all the seats, all the time.
She just needs a few more hours of drive time and she'll be able to take her
test! Yay!
The only thing with doing the jumpseats is that it will cover the hidden
compartment behind the driver's seat. Speaking of which - is that an
original thing or did someone create their own cubby hole at some point?
Also, I am in need of an exterior slider door handle for an '85 GL if anyone
has one laying around they don't need. Please pmail me if you do.
