I plan on having two in the second row and one in the back. I should have it on the road soon, so I'll snap some pictures for you when that happens. Enjoy!
The only issues I've found so far with the stock seats is that to get them tight you have to really crank it and the old style of seats with foam and springs doesn't like this very much. I figure I will just wait till the kid(s) are older to restore the seats...

Also you have to use those restraining buckles for the seat belts since they don't auto retract. That or upgrade to that style of belt which I am considering doing.
