Default Seat additions

I'm looking at a 2002 Discovery II and it is the 5- seat version. Is it easy to add the Jump seats in the back? Are there any write ups on the subject? Does anyone have the back seats in tan leather they would like to sell?

I have heard that is is easy and I have heard that it is very hard and expensive.
One person says the latches in the floor is already there and another says they are not there and a new floor needs to be welded in.
Proceed with caution.

Yeah, I saw a pair of jumpseats at the junkyard the other day and it appeared to me you must drill into the plastic trim in order to hook them into a Rover w/out the jump seats. But if you go ahead with this transformation, WRITE IT UP!

If I do the swap I will! I dont see the reason a manufacturer would not drill the holes in the floor boards. I've worked in auto body manufacturing doing welding tool design and they always added the holes for different options in whether or not the options were added. It's more cost effective to make floor panels one way.
