Interesting, Im not sure how or if this is allowed ?

Anyone know any further knowledge on the subject, I thought rear seats were not allowed legally

No sure on the legality, it might have to be re-registered.

It is a bit light on the truth as well. The "holes" are not all there for the seats, there is one hole missing. At a guess they would have either missed the bolt out or drilled the floor. The seat belt pre-tensioners will not be fitted as I believe the BCU has had the software for the rear removed. Seat belt alerts will be missing. Side airbags will be missing for the rear.

Not sure of the cost of parts but seems expensive? I was offered a new unregistered yellow LCV yesterday at list price. I didn’t buy it. Seems a few more are coming into the country now

As it's a commercial vehicle isn't it the same as fitting seats in a van?

If so this applies:-

In summary,
Yes you can. tell your insurance and DVLA to makes sure they are still happy with the classification.

Interesting as it says 2 seater on the info, then they say rear seats added. I suspect it will need to be re-registered, but look at the photo of the rear seat base, it isn’t square, suggesting it isn’t fixed in place and this will fail on its registration as the rear seat will ‘submarine’ under heavy braking/impact.

I looked at doing this to the cruiser and doing it legally with the correct parts would you have been an expensive job with a lot of hoops to jump through. I decided against it.
