RE: [Chrysler300] 300H Assembly Line Question

["Carlton Schroeder" <schroe99@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Doug,

 

My H is about 70 miles away but I noticed the same thing this summer while working on the floor.

 

At first too I thought someone had done a pretty crude job changing the rear seat attachment brackets.  Then I assumed that with the few H interiors that were put together it probably was cheaper to just modify the normal bench seat attachments.

Hi Group, 

While restoring the interior of my 2nd H, I found that the rear seat attachment brackets had been modified. 

I panicked! Did I have a clone? 

After rechecking all the numbers, I confirmed that the body is correct. 

The original brackets were for a bench rear seat. 

I am assuming that all  2 door hardtops came down the assembly line set up for rear bench seats and that H interiors then had the brackets changed to accommodate bucket seats. 

Can anyone confirm this? 

Underneath the carpet pad, I found a 3"x 6"  red color plate with a paper tag:
