Yep its a sunny coupe rear seat.
Pretty rare i believe. picked it up for only 20 bucks! that was just the base. i plan on using the 1600 backrest. Jeff shoesmith who did this conversion in his 1600 (SX510) used the sunny backrest (which is centre split and folds down), except he removed it from the sunny frame and put the foam etc on the 1600 wire frame. at least that way the foam is the same density. so far though using the 1600 backrest and sunny base feels fine to me though!
Nice find dave.

Yes the sunny rear set is still going very well and heaps more comfortable than the std 1600 rear set.
