Quick Bolts for front double swivel seat

[RachelPope]

In the grand scheme, undoing 4 bolts to unlock the seat for swivelling isn't hard... But are there any 'quick-release' type fixings available (thinking there might be a spring loaded 'push/turn/up, push/turn/down option - can't believe that nobody would have come up with some by now? Thanks

It’s feasible, but then you have all the type approval malarkey. In the event of an accident, do you want to trust your life to a “quick release” seat fixing? As you’ve said, it’s a non-problem, so why complicate it?

Well, obviously, I'm only asking about safe alternatives to screw in bolts which I thought might be developed and available but maybe they are a dragons den project waiting to be invented... BTW, we all trust seat belts in the event of a collision/accident - much more flimsy and quick release for sure... Thank you Salty

I looked at a variety of alternatives as I didn’t fancy the faff of multiple hand wheels. The components they use to lock down moveable seats in minibuses and adapted vehicles would be a good starting point, with a track system to mount the cab seat in the same way as we do in the back. Not found an off the shelf solution in the front.
