Rear Seat Install

[rcr1996]

Have not had my rear seat in my FJ60 for a couple of years.
The bench seat portion back in w/ no problem. I can't remember how the seat back goes in. I had it recovered in Marine vinyl from CCOT, It seems like the rod sticking out from either side on the bottom should fit in the little cradle thing in the floor but when I set it there the rods at the top are too high to fit into the release closures at the top.

Any suggestions?

Need a picture. Maybe they reinstalled the something wrong after they recovered it.

I thought that might be the case. Without pulling the vinyl off, does anyone know if the rod posts at the bottom and top of seat back are movable. Seems like if they came off the frame for the vinyl job, they would go right back in the same holes of the frame.
Am I correct in that the bottom post on each side of the bottom of the seat back rest in the little cradles in the rear floor deck?

kevin rowland has some pix of his back seat from how he flipped the way it folds, maybe that'll help?
