Yes, but for all theater command. More specifically which brigades the last two digits corresponds to. I figured out the 2nd letter corresponds to theater command.
Here is a chart made by @KushigumoAkane on twitter for the entire PLAGF. Pretty spicy upload but he deleted it a fews days later.

Sorry it's in Chinese but if there's anything u need to clarify, feel free to ask.

Basically L = Ground force

Then for the letter following it: D = Eastern TC, N = Southern TC, X = Western TC, B = Northern TC, Z = Central TC, J = Xinjiang MR,
S = Tibet MR

The two numbers after it corrospond to the row and column of the unit in the chart. For the Xinjiang and Tibet MRs, the number is written on top of the unit.

So overall: L(TC/MR)(Row)(Column)

Hope this helps.

Edit: this pic is blurry as hell but I guess it might be clearer if u download it and open it through preview e.g.

Do you have anything which is related to Western Theatre Command?

So I have been boggled for a long moment about a GIF and the overall CSK-181 Mengshi III seating scheme.

The product manual photo and videos showing the inside of a CSK-181 indicate a 10-men capacity, with 2 persons in front (driver and co-driver), 6 persons in the middle, back to back, and 2 persons at the rear, face to face. No problem so far.

Then I saw this GIF :

A soldier is sitting at the CENTER of the two middle seat colomns as the RWS operator, facing the FRONT of the vehicle.
It's really confusing. How exactly are arranged the middle seats ?

To me, it looks like that there is a possible 11th seat (more likely a stool) for the RWS operator. Altenatively, it is possible that 2 seats of the middle are removed to make room for a single front-facing seat. A third unlikely scenario is that the first row of seats can be rotated, but I doubt it.

To be frank I am not convinced by any of those hypothesis.

Someone who is familiar with the Mengshi III seats please answer me, this is boggling as hell.

Option 1 at 5:38. Also doubles as a stand when the gunner want to pop up through the roof.

Thank you for the video material. Too bad the cameraman just doesn't want to film lower to show the full shape of that "stool".
I wonder if this 11th place has a seatbelt and anti-mine design as well or not, so it can be sat upon during long range manoevers.
