That's exactly what I did. I made two L brackets and bolted to the existing seat mount. The current seat mounts aren't equal distance apart from the center line. So, I had to fab the brackets separately after centering the jump seat. You could do the same to the rear seat if you wanted to, however, I was not going to use it as a seat so I didn't. The added bonus of not mounting the rear part of the jump seat is that it folds up. This makes for easy cleaning under it and might just let people get to the 3rd row seat easier. But, who uses the 3rd row seats? I always have them down for added cargo space.

I put some gaffers tape on the underside of the carpet before I cut it just to help keep the fibers intact.
Thats a great view of front attachment, here is what I used for rear. A $20 amz seat bracket kit with a couple extra screw bracket thinggies I had left over from a aries nerf install kit (pic 2). You can see it all come together in 3rd pic behind red wire. Red wire feeds gang panel in console; it was fished under carpet/panels to driver side 3rd row power outlet - just pull up cupholder and solder it up under there. Used a 3d printer to fab covers for old armrest holes to finish up...270516773db34eefa1ab3b19bb12683f.jpgb3b413429f725e1a3e008fe4ba9f4c42.jpg6a5c7b74e960885b00ebbfb6798a3b1f.jpg4a18f9417815aec7fac5c0ee5b0c8723.jpgf2161079c83834b8459bb6dfb85b16f4.jpga77d1fad28eff4cb6ff2940910095887.jpg

Those little covers for the armrest pine are very nice!
Thanks. Bout the only useful thing that creality ender has made. They have held up nicely for 6 months with a dab or gorilla glue on the metal...
