ABT Seats

[Kev23]

I have these fitted in T6.1 (Fitted when purchased), I just noticed they are on swivel bases, but when trying to turn these around, the arm rest hits on the pillar. Does anyone have similar issue? Or is this because they are not OEM or is there something I'm missing with rotating the seats?

Slide them forward slightly it should then clear the pillar

tried that, the arm rest is approx 1" from allowing it to rotate, weird as i would expect ABT to have had a solution, or just fit fixed. Weird, had i not accidentally found out they swivel, then i would not have cared, but now i know, i want them to work!..

you might need to turn the wheel on the side to tilt the upper section forward too

Look like seat surgeons seats to me. Are they factory swivels? If so the will spin. Seat forward then incline the backrest forward then they will turn.

I’d not know factory swivels if I saw them, but I’ll give your suggestion a go, thanks

Factory swivels release handle if in the below the middle of the seat base at the front. If it has them you won’t have any seat height adjustment. It’s 2 or the other.

These are seat surgeons.
