Default Rear Bench Hinges

Looking to see if anyone can post a picture of the underside of a Lightning rear bench seat hinges. Myine is older and only has a straight piano hinge. this limits how far the seat bottom will open up. Want to put a double hinge in there to open a little further. Any help appreciated TIA.

Mine has two 8" long pieces of piano hinge mounted on some standoffs and the only thing that stops it from hitting the other seats is the safety wire

Mine is similar to Grenn Lightning, but it does not have that 1x board that it mounts to. That would give it the extra inch or so needed. Thanks to all for the pictures, gives me something to consider when re-installing the seat.
