[Healeys] Easily removable 4 seater rear seat pans?

[Patrick and Caroline Quinn]

G'day Dave

Yes Jensen did when they fitted the two back seats to an Austin-Healey for
the first time.

In my car, which is the very first AH to be fitted with the extra seats they
are each held in by four self tapping screws through the leather and tractor
seats. Very sophisticated they were with their prototypes.

Only Abingdon would make it more complicated.

Has anyone come up with or seen a modification that would allow the seat pan
for the 4 seater Healeys to be unlatched from above without having to reach
underneath (and get all dirty) accessing those 4 nuts for each pan?
I'm tired of having to jack the car up, position stands, to remove the
wheels
to access the seat pan nuts in order to work on the pumps, hoses, wiring
etc.
