Another update. Received the second set of seat mounts today.

I pretty much got them for the pin receiving bracket and floor mounts. The more I stare at it all, the more it looks like these tan plastic trims won't get used by me.

So here are some pics of one side of the fitment I am exploring. It's a back-to-back configuration. Note the tape measure.
In that last picture, note the position of the 3rd row's side pin - it's in the 2nd row's slot! What I'm hoping to do is this:
Use the existing 2nd row's pin retaining bracket to fasten the 3rd row seat, but have the entire piece modified by a fabricator. The modification consists of:
- flipping the orientation of the existing pin retaining bracket to accept a pin from the rear of the vehicle rather than the front
- weld an extension plate coming off that bracket toward the front which will feature my second set of pin retaining brackets fitted to the end of it, to lock the relocated 2nd row's pin. That will connect this gap:
Measurements in this configuration are as follows:
- 3rd row foot room: 11.5"
- 2nd row foot room: 19"
- 2nd row knee room average: 13"
I already outlined how I might relocate the 2nd row forward, but it looks like its only going to move 6.5" rather than the initial 9"
