    What are the best rear seat support trays? Outside of drilling out the rivets and puting in a new base to get rid of the trays.

    A2‘s had the thicker seat base cover due to the addition of bucket seats, they are not necessary to mount different seats, but if you must have them, I have some…but you won’t like the price….LOL

    Unknown Part M1165 A1

    They are accessory mounting plates, you can’t drill into the fender top like older trucks to mount stuff because you would drill into the fender AC condensers.

    Need a sample Humvee VIN number.

    old vin’s especially short vins are commonly duplicated, dmv is just stupid…as usual. CHP can assign a new VIN. What documents did you provide DMV? Also….Calif will not register for road use.
