Caravelle triple 3/4 bed

[andythom188]

Hi im going to hopefully collect a caravelle triple rear and x2 swivel rear seats up tomorrow.
Question is how does the seat recline into bed position as seller never used it, I've never played with one so not sure what im doing must have handles to recline

Im sure someone will assist but in mean time try an Online manual?.

In the centre of the middle seat just under the cushion there's a black plastic handle you pull out. Push the back of the seat as you pull the handle and it will start to recline and the seat rose into a relatively flat bed.

I've come across a like new cloth rear triple and x2 single swivels 2015 to recover in leather they were taken out from new and stored and caravelle was converted to a camper.
I've struck the deal at a steal to be honest , might aswel say I've had the 2 single swivels for free just got to go pick them up from Nottingham tomorrow, just hope he doesn't change his mind

Winner mate don't think you'll be disappointed look forward to seeing them trimmed, have you decided on what style yet?

Come to think of it why the hell would you buy a velle then convert it into a camper! Would of been better off getting a beach or an ocean lol.

The van came with a "Good Night" option which is a mattress topper for the seats and a full curtain set, all zipped up in a hold-all for £366, I didn't order it picked up the van as a cancelled order and dealer threw them in with a lot of other options free!

Don't you worry about hijacking my thread I'm guilty of doing it myself on occasions
I've gone thermal blackout vanshades for rear side windows and rear hatch , not sure what to get for front windscreen and door windows, any suggestions on what's the best ?

No worries it's a combination of magnets and being a snug fit up against the window seal all works fine and easy to fit and remove

I've been looking at these seem pretty good Thermal Silver Window Screens – Product Categories – Campervan Parts UK
But I might have to research the VW ones a bit more cheers @Caravellet6
