Picked up a 2003 ET4 (will post pics once done), had a factory seat on it that was totally worn. Purchased this on eBay and noticed that the underside is a bit different as that it doesn't have the tool kit location and some strap thing? What can you tell me about it??

That's a ET seat and the tool kit is gone. Used to be attached to the strap that's under it. Tool kit that comes with it is useless IMHO. You can do your own. What does the seat look like that's on the bike now? Sounds like your saying that you don't think the Ebay one is stock but it is.

If it fits and opens/closes okay, does it matter what the middle bit looks like....? Looks like it should fit to me!

It's an aftermarket ET2/4 seat.
