Hi Kelly
Myself, I bought a one-place middle seat very comfortable with arm rest
storage and swivel base. I also find that these are great. While camping
they can stay inside (by the slidind door not by the fridge if planning
to use the fridge) or be used in the side tent.They do not prevent back
seat to become a bed...Well, very good buy...except it's brown in a grey
interior. As per number of passengers go, I am planning to install a
third seatbelts on the rear bench. We'll be able to carry 6 people. I
bought this seat last fall in the buy and sell...
Ciao
