i am wondering how simple it would be to put seats in the bed of my truck, i need them to fold down b/c on the tonneau cover.

** b/c of the tonneau cover, too tired to check my spelling

I don't imagine that it would be that hard, I bet you could just use the back seats out of a blazer, I know my brother's blazer seats fold down enough to be under a Tonneau cover....i think just drill some holes, bolt them down with a 3/16 steel plate on the bottomside to act like a Big washer....

Easy Job, and a 2 door Blazer rear seat should work really good.

Where I live you'd need a Roll Cage protecting your passengers heads to be road legal, so look into that first.

If you want a Blazer seat I have a light brown one in good shape that I'd give you (if you pay for the shipping, handling, etc). I live in B.C. Canada ZIP code V0H 1M0 if you want to look into the costs involved.

If anyone knows Colorado State law on this let me know.... its kind of weird since they WILL be buckled in, not just holding on... maybe ask a cop!

if its going to be used while in motion, you would have to put seat belts in it, make it face foward (not sure on that one) and a roll cage over it to protect the people in case of a roll over... good luck with that island

well, i'll look into this a bit more with the cops, hopefully get a exact definition of the law.
