Retrofit 7 seat to 6 seat in 2016 X

Hi. I did this middle seat removal 2 months ago on my 2016 x, not to difficult. Only error code I can find is in the service menu. Problems I got so far is with updates and a weird sleep pattern. I did this the first week after I got the car, so have no data from before.

Thank you tmc for all your help. Finally finished converting my 7 into a 6 seater.
I'm a little late to the party, but am looking to do the OPPOSITE. I removed my center console that was bolted in with four bolts into the subfloor. I wonder If I can take a seat like yours and shove it and bolt on.

Do you still have that seat? Do you remember the bolt pattern, or can you share pictures of the floor once removed? Thank you!

Sorry, I don’t have any pictures.I am sure anything is possible.
 
Actually the fold flat 2nd row seats (5 seat version) foot print is identical to the pedestal seats so no new holes are needed. Looks like the 7 seat version has the same foot print as well. It makes sense from a manufacturing point of view.
I have 7-seaters with 2nd row mono post, wishing to convert to bench-style 2nd row that can be folded for more cargo space. Any guidance or web reference, please.
