Single swivel to double swivel fold down

[phoenixfc7]

So my friend just bought a T6 LWB and wants to change the single seat to a double. Reason being it’s a U shaped layout and needs 3 seat belts. Currently it’s a swivel single. I going to do the swap but have some queries. The main downside is a double restricts access to the rear so do all doubles fold down or just certain types. The new double needs to swivel so I have seen double swivel bases, any recommendations? Finally I’m reading conflicting accounts of the switch in terms of attaching the new double seats to the floor if the van. Are the bolts holes there already for a double? How difficult is the swap and any tips on undertaking this swap. Thanks in advance

My double swiveller and doesn’t fold down - I believe that there are kits to covert it though. What’s the plans for the single swivel seat - selling? I’d be interested as it’s the one thing that I would change in my van

For the swivel base, go for a Rusty Lee Sliding Swivel... makes it much easier to turn the seat.

Thanks, not sure if keeping the single to have the option but will ask. Anyone know much about the fixings for a double and if the holes are there etc. ?

Thanks. Can you turn the seat from the front? I’m just trying to figure out a way to go front to back without clambering over the seats?!

Was the van originally a double or a single passenger?

If a single, it might need the airbag changing to a double, apparently they are different.
