A few basic 1972 145 questions:
1. What is the latch mechanism for lifting the rear seat bottom up? Is it one lever that releases both sides like on later 245 wagons? I felt around and couldn't find a lever of any sort. Seats have been recovered so it's possible that the original latching mechanism is gone.
2. This is the first '72 that I found that does not have 3 point seat belts in the rear. Is it likely that the mounting points are there for installing three point seat belts?
3. Has anyone installed a rear facing third row seat from a 245 into a 145, complete with seat belts?
4. Headliner is trashed, will a 245 headliner fit and any tricks/tips regarding removal/installation?
