Hi everyone.
I was just wondering if anyone can help me.
I'm now installing the front seats on my 69 charger.
I did not remove them.so I have no idea how they go back in.
Any pictures of how they go back in would be much appreciated!
Thanks!
 
Bolt holes in the floor. There is a nut that put on from underneath the car.
 
You literally just drop the seat in the holes on the floor. Washer and nut from under the car. You can actually do it all without even jacking the car up.

Install lap belt first if you haven't already

Yeah, that's what I expected it to be, but it had new floor pans before.
The holes have not come pre drilled.
Just wanted to check before I started to make holes

Do you require the locations to drill?
 
In that case I would suggest he following:
Take the seat and pull on the adjuster and make sure that both sides line up.
In other words the 4 bolts make a rectangle.

Next set the seat on a piece of plywood and mark the stud locations.
Drill out the 4 holes you've marked and stick in some temporary bolts maybe 1 -1/2" long.
Then you can take the board beneath the car and match it up with the seat support braces and know which holes to drill out.
On my 66 some of the braces have more than 1 hole. Don't really know why.

I suspect bench seat. My 67 is the same way.
