Rear Seats in a 90 TDCi Hard Top

I'm contemplating installing after market forward facing folding seats (Exmoor) in the back of my 2008 90 Hard Top. However, space looks very tight. Whilst the seats may fit ok into the space available, I'm wondering how difficult/easy it is for rear seat passengers to get out of the vehicle? I imagine it would be rather confined and awkward trying to fold up and move a heavy seat out of the way? Is there anyone with any experience who can shed some light on the practicalities please?

They would enter and exit through the rear door with a fold up step 👍
There is plenty of room for the seats and to get in and out

Hi these seats were fitted in my HT before I brought it. They fold nicely out of the way, are made by Exmoor trim. Not the easiest seats to get in and out of but for occasional use they are fine and do offer more space in the back when folded away.
Hope this helps

Thanks for the info re the CSK solution PJ. I like how it provides a central gap between the seats that isn't there with the Exmoor type. Only thing is I have some Exmoor seats that have been gathering dust for a while now. I'm going to give it a shot with those since thats what I have. At least I now know if they prove to be too awkward, there is another option open to me. Thank you.
