rib bed

Hello fellow T6ers. I'm having a hilo fitted right now to our SWB T6 and have a RIB 112 on order. Jason at Jaibow informed me when I dropped off my van to him about the RIB seat being particularly high and potentially an issue. Something that I hadn't realised. Due to covid I hadn't been able to...

Hello ! After years of reading, I started to open my first post. I wonder if someone on the forum has a rib seat installed on a caravelle t6/t5. I find the problem that the side trims can take up a lot of space, or that the seat does not clear the wheel arch well.I have only found a photo on the...

Can anyone tell me the distance from the centre of the rear door threshold cover to the front edge of the RIB frame? i have a T6 SWB and I’m trying to work out where the frame will sit in relation to furniture doors.

Any videos of fitting RIB seat bed to s kombi van 2019

I have a rib seat/bed in a fixed position. Would it be big job/possible at all to put it onto rails system so I can move it forward to load up for holidays and any idea of a cost to do this?. Thanks

Looking for an Altair 120 cm RIB for my T6 Highline . Preferably the long version (1940mm). Any one selling one - or know of a dealer who may have one in stock ? Thanks Peter

Hi I’m desperately trying to find the depth of the EvoMotion slim cabinets before installing my Rib 130. I’ve got to get the seats in before installing/ ordering the cabinets, which isn’t ideal, but want to make sure I’m tight enough to the near side wall with the bed to get the slim cabinets...

I’ve started installing my rib bed today as a mock up so I can make sure everything fits with kitchen etc. The only prob Em I have is that the 200mm sliding mechanism is too low for the wheel arch and the nuts holding the seat on fouls it so won’t slide properly. Any help would be appreciated thanks

Rib passenger swivel . Non offset . Installed this New in April during lockdown , Due to boredom buying random bits online for the van ! As new condition all fixings included . Decided it’s not for us .not a camper van so not needed Really . Collection only as I don’t fancy posting its heavy ...

Hi everyone - brand new so apologies if any of these have been answered somewhere already. I've just sold my first VW Camper - a very cheap SWB conversion on a T5.1. Basically decided that we love it and having had our big trip cancelled this summer thought now is the time to sell and get the...

Is there a need to have welding done in order to move your rear seats forward? Duncan

I’ve fitted my RIB Altair bed with the supplied mounting plate that fits over the rear most support brace. However, being a LWB it’s a long way back. I’d like to remove the brace, invert it and move the whole thing 100-200mm further forward. There’s still plenty of scope in the bed on it’s...

Has anyone fitted the RIB Altair to their LWB? I managed to install yesterday with the supplied fitting kit, (big brace that fits over one of the rear cross members/ support brace). However, I’m not desperately happy with the location having naively thought that the sliding option would allow...

Hi I wonder if anyone answer a query. I've just sold a lwb van and now want a swb shuttle as I'd like to use the middle row single seat as an extra but also put a rib bed behind it. I know the rib beds need to be fitted further forward due to design but just down know if there would be room if...

Hi I want to buy a rib Altair 112cm with the slider mechanism but are worried about how much head room there would be with a normal van roof ie not a pop top any advice ?

So I’m at the stage of choosing a rear seat / bed but am finding it difficult to justify the £2000 they want for a two seat rib bed in matching Vw cloth are they worth it ? They do look nice I must admit ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hi all, Does anyone know how to get inside the RIB 112cm seat base cover please? I see that there are zip teeth, but no zip slider thing.... The foam for the top section has come away from the foam from the bottom section, so there’s a line where the layers fail to meet. I need to get...

Rib bed/seats do they come with seat belts etc.
