    Toolbox removal?

    Going from 40/60 to 60/40

    The overall length is the same it's just a matter of where your holes are I put a set of 2012 seats in a friends 2002 and everything is generally the same just a difference in where your holes line up. Just drill holes and take the same bolts from your gmt400 seats and bolt them in.
