Sorry to introduce more confusion, but if you get all the parts, you can definitely add the 2 jump seats to your D2, but it isn't as easy as just bolting them in. I had this done when I bought my D2 and it's nice to have the option of using the jump seats for one of my kids when we have visitors. It sounds like something you should be able to do yourself if you are handy and acquire all the correct pieces. The dealer I bought my truck from said it's a solid 8 hours of work for the install, and charged me $1k parts and labor. (This included labor to remove the interior pieces from a donor D2.)

Also, note that not all of the 7 seat D2's came with rear air. Apparently, this is important, as it is a factor in how one of the jump seats mounts to the truck...

if you want rear jump seats that bad I would just sell your rover and buy an SE7 with rear seats and rear a/c..it get really hot back there in the summer without rear a/c

the reason i want the jump seats is because i found someone who has the vehicle i want and will trade it for a 6 passenger SUV
makes life easier than finding a buyer for mine, then being without a vehicle until i find one i like.
i have it advertised for sale but no takers so far

Buy a plastic lawn chair and strap it in the trunk: 2+3+1=6
It's not worth the effort in adding the 2 jump seats.

if the vehicle you're trading for is worth your rover + $1k I say go for it..find a shop to do the work or weld in the mounts yourself.
