Third row seat configuration.

[DB3000]

Hi people, recently collected my t6.1 SWB Kombi. Current configuration is 5 seats (2x captain & 2+1 second row). I want to add 2X seats to the third row, I have search the forum (using search function) but can't find my answer.



If I purchase a 1+1+1 seat setup, can I fit just the 2X outer seats to the third row of a swb kombi? As in are there the fixing positions for this and do the seats sit over the arch as I imagine they would?

I understand I need to fit the seat mounts/seat belts etc (hoping seatbelt mounts are there also?)

I just want to be able to remove the seats easily on the third row so a bench is no good.

First Post so be gentle!

Thanks

If using factory located mounts 3rd row can only be triple bench or single centre seat from a 1+1+1
Other options won’t clear the wheel arches.

Ah OK. Thanks. So bench tripple it may have to be.



Can you mount the fitting plates in different locations or best to stick to factory?

Have a chat with @BognorMotors - I’ve seen one of their conversions that uses two middle shuttle seats with a gangway down the middle.

I think the two single rear third row seats is only possible for LWB. Might be wrong on that though

Looks like @BognorMotors can do 2 single centre seats in 3rd row.

Kombi 3rd Row - single seats?

Hi all, Has anyone fitted 2 middle seats (the individual ones with seat belts) into row 3? If so, do you mind sharing photos and any feedback please? I'm trying to work out my new seating configuration (I currently have a 2+1 factory Kombi) and up until now I was thinking of adding a triple...

I’m sure this isn’t a factory configuration so I’d be interested to know if there is any crash test certificate for this layout.

Yes it is in the Vw Shuttle. They have feet for a seat in the n/s with all the correct reinforcement plates. You can just duplicate it on the RHS

Works with SWB too, although you have to take the plastics off the seats as they touch the arches.

Sorry to hijack this thread, but does anyone know what floor reinforcing brackets I'd need to fit a triple bench to the third row? Is it the same amount as for fitting the triple in the regular position?

Hi, that’s not true. I have 2 singles fitted in the 3rd row using factory located mounts

Hi, could you please elaborate on that? How did you do it? What brackets did you use? Any guidance would be helpful as I would like to do the same on mine

You could look at the Caravele system of rails. I have one with all seats on sliders. I have a rear 3 bench and 2 singles that revolve. also table mounted on runners. Some replace the bench with 2 singles Not sure if an additional one could be added to make 3 individual seats to replace the bench?

If you have additional seats you may need to register them?
