Hi there, I have a 73 Gremlin with a split bench seat. I have acquired a pair of 73 Javelin bucket seats (Forward handle in the middle). I was wondering if this is a straight forward swap? I want it to look like it came that way. The seats even match my maxi blue interior. Do they just bolt in with additional holes drilled? Or do brackets have to be made?
Thank you very much in advance. Scott |

From what i gather the small body seats are smaller than Javelin. Mostly by seat cusion. I think you may be able to swap tracks and use them, with slight tunnel and door squeeze. The seat frames may need to be drilled to fit hole locations for the tracks you have.
You can remove the passenger side seat and mess with messurements before fitting one of the Javelin seats. |

I have 74 Javelin seats in my Spirit so they should bolt in if you have 2 tracks on each side
