I thought about swapping out the spare set of W126 seats that I have into the Gwagen but I had some concerns about width and more importantly the weight. Admiral-ahani is correct in his assessment that those seats are HEAVY. The thought of trying to lean them forward for rear seat access didn't come across as very appealing....

What about seats out of a SEC? they lean forward for rear seat access.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
