They will fit, but not sure how they stand with MOT stations as if you were to have a collision then the risk is that the passengers in the back would not be able to get out as safely/hastily.
Personally unless they are very special seats then I would leave it. :happy2:

there is nothing in a MOT to say people have to be able to get out the back  :happy2:

i know from experience, someone tried failing me on it but couldn't in the end!

As long as the front seats are secure your fine, although the MOT tester will kick your banglies in cos he won't be able to get in the back to check the rear belts :grin:
