Speak to John.
I had mine fitted a few months ago. I'm just waiting for Altro floor to be fitted. If you click on above link you can find a video clip to the STIDE.
Thank you, I live quite close to Reimo north (think it’s part of same company you used)Reimo VW Camper Conversions For The UK | Westward Leisure

I called in over the weekend they said they can do a Stide bed on rails which works out closer to my budget.
Do they bond the rails down or are they mechanically fixed?
Apparently the floor has factory markings where the original fixings would be for California. So holes are drilled and rails are fastened to floor. They're not bonded.
I'm pleased with the seats and Johns work. The STIDE has a nice hidden box where I have my jack. I removed the jack bracket so its clean on the wheel arch. The box is hidden under the seat. When you pop seat forward and up their is a storage box. Discuss whether you'll have a floor fitted first or fitted around the rails.
from what I've seen from online videos it look like a great piece of kit. the storage moves with the seat which is a bonus. I'll fit my own ply and flooring after seat fitting. hopefully a Caravelle deep step will cover the built up floor?
I have a roll of Altro sand walkway in my hall waiting to be fitted onto plywood. I have air suspension so compressors rivets are visible on inside floor. Ply needs to be fitted under rails and on top of rivets which don't stick out that much. John says he'll fit the floor. I need it done perfectly.
Your van looks mint by the way
I plan to air fitted in the future. I suppose the compressor can be bolted through the ply.
Have you installed solow Air?
No need, the rivets are inline more or less with the floor ridges. Plywood will sit above them or just drill a shallow hole for top of rivets to fit into.
Google VanCave and speak to Chris for info on air suspension.
I live round the corner from where they sell Stide seats. Only problem for me is the 120cm width. No way I’m getting 3 car seats on that… and does it sit on Unwin rails? I wanted the Reimo 3000 or looked at putting a 130 RIB on Unwin’s. But think I’m going to plump for Fabworx…

I have Stide seats on my van.
No experience another brand but this works well.
Feel free to ask anything.

When you have passengers on the STIDE seats do you hear noises?

No.
But when the seat is empty and the position is at the end of the rail, it will start to make a bit of noise.
I have yet to find out why. In time I will when I have had the floor layed
