12 Meter Express Bench Seat Question

Post by tcollins2 »

I had to remove the bolt down bench seats on my 12 M express. There is a hatch cover cut into the side of it. When both bench seats are installed the other bench seat does not have a matching hatch cover on it making the first one useless. Anyone know why they put that there?

It came that way.
Are these seats used in another application?

Not really. There are thumb screws that bolt down the seats into deck plates on the engine hatch. The other section of seating butts right next to this one making access impossible. It definitely appears to be from the factory.
