Legally they should test the number of seats the same as what your logbook states. If you remove the rears and the logbook still says 5 seats then it should really fail.

If you get the logbook changed and declare 2 seats yuo will pass, but add them back and not change the V5 too and that would also be a fail.

TBH, they don't go by the letter of the law so removing both belts and seats and not changing the V5 will get you a pass.

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.
