The picture I have are of the 185 jumpseat.

To PM just click the PM button at the bottom of my post. Enter a topic and write your note. Pretty easy stuff.

Frank,the Cessna jumpseat attaches via the original rear seat attach point on the side of the airplane & at the rear door post where you have to install a nutplate. It only has legs on the inboard side,which by the way do not bolt to the floor. Kinda questionable to me,but that's the Cessna way so who am I to question it? The disadvantage compared to BAS or AD is that it has to come out of the airplane versus folding out of the way,when you need the cargo space.
Pete,most of the available Cessna jumpseats I've seen are put up for sale by 180/185 guys upgrading to the BAS or AD seats. They do ask the moon sometimes. I saw a set of leather-upholstered jumpseats for sale locally a few years ago for $500,probably not that bad a price for what they were but too rich for my blood,especially cuz I only wanted one. I paid $150 plus S&H for one with cloth upholstery in decent but not great shape. Kelly held my hand for the installation & approval.
Pete,I had the same idea on the LH rear seat re: long cargo,but also wanted the rear passenger where I see them-- lotsa 2nd passengers are pretty girls! The question was resolved when a RH seat made itself available.

Kelly, can you email the pics to me also? I ordered the Dodge seats back in December and my mechanic and I will be installing them in a couple weeks.

Thanks,
