Could someone post a pic of their 03-06 rear seat mounts (the 1s closer to the gate)
My tj didnt have a seat when I got it, I bought 1 off a guy local that's pretty knowledgeable, so I'm pretty sure it's for the right years, but the mounts on the floor are too far to the front to catch the mount on the seat. Fronts look fine, I'm kinda hoping that someone put the brackets in backwards, and I'll just have to reverse them
 
My 06 LJ looks like these.

Edit: sorry for the confusion.

So these aren't for the 03-06? Mines an 06, and came with these, I was hoping whoever lined the tub, maybe put them in wrong

I've had a 05 TJ and 06 LJ. The seat brackets for LJ's are one piece for each side and the brackets for the TJ are two piece for each side. If you have the right brackets ( and I think you do) turn them around and see if that works. Just to try it, I had my TJ seat in my LJ for a while and even though the seat brackets are different between the two, the seat fit fine.
 
The seat should latch into the front brackets before the rears, it should also be folded when trying to get it to latch. Get it to latch into the front while folded in the upright position then rotate it down then unfold the back rest part of the seat to latch it in the rear brackets.
 
You should have directional arrows on the front mounts. The arrows will point toward the front of the jeep.

The rear brackets have a slight cutout on one corner that fits around a small bump on the tub.

Those are correct. Yeah I think you just need to flip the rear mount

I have an 05 tj I bought a seat from someone but the brackets look different from these and my seat has no bar at the front to lift out did I get the wrong seat he told me it was for my jeep

There are two different, incompatible ways the rear seats go in for a TJ. Probably changed from 03-04 when many other things changed.
