    Any difference in the bolt pattern of the bottom of the seat on a 4 dr versus 2 dr?

    i have 4 door buckets in my car and theres hardly any space to get through to the back seat.

    i took out the bolts on the seats and it doesnt have anything to stop it from flipping completly back besides a peice of plastic. so i put the bolts back in :)

    I wonder if you could cut a notch from the upper bolts out towards the back so that you can move the seat forwards over the bolt then you could leave the bolt in the lower seat frame. Would that solve your problem?
    It would make it so that it will pull forwards but when you go to set it back down the notch slides over the other bolt and the seat then rests back on the bolt in its original position so it wont go backwards.
