Re-install seats

New plate washers and bolts arrived so quick job to bolt everything back in.

Slightly new arrangement which saves me 5mm seat height! (12.5mm down to 7mm) this is secondary to spreading the seat load on the floorpan a little more.

Inside: A half height nut, who's job is only to stop the bolt falling out when putting the seats back in, and a 3mm thick 50mmx50mm plate washer.
Outside: No change - penny washer and new full size nyloc. 

This still gives just enough clearance to lift the seat position adjuster bar.

Changed to hex heat bolts rather than cap head, the hex locks into the rail and along with the half height nut on the other side its never going to turn.

Plate washers showing the size in context.

...and all shiny and new on the underside until the next run out which will hone the bolt length.
