<< Has anyone made this installation of middle seats on their Westy?  I
pulled the
 metal sill off next to the sliding door and it appears the carpet is tacked
 down to a veneer of some sort, which is in turn tacked to wood.  I didn't
have
 a lot of time and I was hesitant to start ripping up good looking carpet
 without at least the wisdom of this list.  Any suggestions?

use a circular saw to cut your plywood subfloor, then lay the floortracks
down in the slots youve cut. all vans wether it be a westy, or a passenger
van, have the same floor stampings, so make sure you make your cuts in the
right place so you can use the factory bolt holes for the tracks.
or if you dont want to cut your floor, you can install the tracks on the
surface. they dont stick up all that much, plus your toes will get used to it

 ps, i still have a few westy middle seats for sale, 2 person variety, with
floortracks, grey, blue or tan.
