3rd row seat latch

[Catatonic]

I have a '99 eddie Bauer.......My Bud just bought a 2000 xlt
His has waht appears to be a latch in the center of the back floor to latch the 3rd row seat in the forward folded position.
I have a third row seat but no way to latch it folded forward.....Is this what the center latch is for?

On our old 2000, this was "grocery mode" for my wife. Rolling the 3rd row forward, then flipping the bar down and snapping it into that bracket saved me from dragging the seat in and out countless times.

Thats what I figured it was for.......I wish my '99 had that latch.
Im sure I can mount one in it somehow.
