I thought of doing something similar but was put off by the safety aspect/insurance/passenger liability aspects in the event of an accident. Tensile strength of longer bolts, non standard seat base etc.
I am sure it would work fine in normal use but in a serious accident scenario where the passenger seat broke free with serious injury resulting I wouldn't want to risk a claim for damages when the insurers walk away.
