S65 4 Seater Conversion?

Hey Guys! I've found an S65 that I'm really interested in buying but it has the 4 seat option. I have 3 kids and the purpose for me to buy a car this size is because I need the room (kids and work). Does anyone know if there is anyway (within reason) to convert the center section of these 4 seat cars to an actual seat? It doesn't seem like it would be that big of a deal but then again, you would need a seat belt and that would pose a problem I think. Anyone out there done this or looked into it?

It shouldnt be a problem. I've seen it done to a CLS, the owner got the 3rd seat from an E class. Do a search on google maybe you'll find it. When I have some time later I will look for the direct link.

Where to start? The Italians or the Germans?
I don't know about the W220, but I was looking at doing a 4-seat conversion to my W140 and it is pretty much impossible. The seat mounts are completely different from the 4 seat and the five seat. Maybe it is more "universal" for the W220, but I don't know.

It will most likely be cost prohibitive, look for a car with the rear bench that seats 3.

I would be very interested in the CLS 3-seat configuration. Thank you.

The conversion would be pretty involved. You may be able to find somewone with adjustable rear bench seats willing to swap parts but the seat brackets may be diffrent. I have 4 pass seats and love them but I would wait to find one that fits your needs.
