Have you got the rear storage bins at the moment?

Pretty sure its just a case of removing them and fitting the rear seats.

The rear seats are utterly pointless dude - you can\'t even fit other people\'s children in, no matter how hard i tried.

RX7\'s too good to share with your mates, tell them to buy their own.

Plus it\'ll be slow as hell with four people in it! Three 12 stone passengers is about 20% increase in weight... So on a stock FD you\'d need another 50 horsepower just to make up for them.  You\'ll just be annoyed when they sit in the car and say \'i thought this was supposed to be fast?\' as someone passes you in a Corsa VXR!

LOL the back seats are ideal if you want to carry a pair of upturned turtles or tortiesessesses (DAMN YOU SPELL CHECKER)
 
Plus if you have aftermarket seats they have to either climb in via the boot or become ninjas.

I\'ve done what you\'re planing to do and found out that you do need to build some sort of brackets to support the back of the seats as they are not present in the UK models.
