With you supply the flooring and seating?
Thinjking about this now, how easy/ difficult is it to get the carpet off the OEM floor. Im worried it might pull lumps of the chipboard away.
The carpet on mine came off fairly easy however around the edges of the rails the board is machined down very thin and it did break off but it didnt seem to have any detrimental effect on the new carpet I think it just acts as a stiffener to hold the carpet up and prevent it sagging down maybe an issue with thin carpet
Thank you.
Hello, just wondering we have a lwb kombi. Our current setup is the kombi rear bench seat and a custom bed that stays in the back and slides out when needed. Is it possible to fit these rails to a lwb? Are the lashing points still available afterwards? I'm not sure I understand the difference between the different numbers of rails etc. Is this work all ok to get approved afterwards? V important for me as here in Switzerland mods are not like in the UK..
Also, and importantly, what storage does the sliding rear bench give you?

hello again, just wondering about this.. where do you guys get the rails and the floors from? i cant seem to find them.. :-( bench seat i have found. Any pics of peoples storage would be great.. under the bench but also at the back - @Deaky am i right you went this route? We currently have a diy pullout for our fridge and storage and i'd want to be able to make sure we can fit all that in aswell otherwise were not winning on storage options.. all help greatfully received! 
I got my LWB rails And triple seat from Richard At Kernow Transporters. The rails were fitted by Colin at Oxford T5, he also supplied the floor. I have a full width pull out drawer in the back that sits under the multi flex board.
@scotia. I can second that. I got all mine from Kernow, they did my floor at the same time too. No storage for me yet, still figuring that out. I’m thinking of a custom pod that can fix into the rails either in the front or at the back bit like what slidepods do but smaller.
I do like @Deaky’s drawer but then again his van is amazing!!!
ok great that looks nice - yup i thought deaky had done that. ok i now need to persuade them to send to switzerland we'll see... as for the floor and the fitting.. i wish we had a colin at oxford in switzerland...
dumb question, but what happens for bed then? the bench seat flips fwd and backwards - that makes your bed? this is the same height as the multiflexboard? i'd need to see what height it is to see if the fridge fits.. a dometic. i seem to remember seeing a pic of deaky's fridge just fitting - should be good.

Ok, either I need to do a roadtrip to the UK (Oxford!) Or I need to organise shipping (I don't know how) of the bits.. floor might be tricky!! @slidepods you don't happen to do a CNC version split in 3 do you like your floor I saw a while back?!
Another option is North West Transporter Parts in Wrexham. I got my rails and a OEM Caravelle floor from there. I know he sources some of his parts from Europe so may be able to help.ok great that looks nice - yup i thought deaky had done that. ok i now need to persuade them to send to switzerland

I don’t think it leaves you much space to put big items through, no. When all the way forward it can go further forward than if it were a static bench or a 2+1 but we’re only talking a few cm more.
