I haven't seen the mount points for the solid seat, but I'm sure they're the same since this swap has been done many times. I can't imagine toyota using a different assembly build for the two different seats.

I'll let you know if I can figure out a better way to get it to you.

I appreciate it, one of the things I am most disappointed with on my new Yaris hatchback is the lack of carrying space. The solid rear seat does not fold down flat, and coming from a VW Passat wagon I am used to having the ability to haul a lot of stuff!

Heck, my 1976 Pinto hatchback I had in the late 70s/early 80s hauled things better than my 2008 Yaris hatchback! I think Toyota made some aspects of this car a little too cheaply!

Cheers! M2

How much would the solid one go for o.0

Any updates?

I have found the solid rear seat folds down better if you raise the middle headrest a bit (I saw a Yaris hatchback delivery car at my local NAPA parts store that was like that); but I would still love to get the split-folding rear seat.

Cheers! M2

Nothin yet. The shipping is really the killer part of this deal. Such a bummer too, I had a buyer in Chicago, and I had to drive up there this month anyways. But he had a personal issue show up and had to back out.

I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that someone will either meet me, or actually live near me.
