SVB Accessories?

[John K]

Does anyone know if SVB Accessories are still around? Their web site is down and there's nothing on their Ebay shop.

I've got their passenger seat swivel base and I like it so much that I want to do the driver's side now. Not having much luck at the moment though.

Did you find any info @John K as I’m same have passenger base swivel and would like to get a drivers one

No, I drew a complete blank unfortunately. I ended up getting one from CMC in the end.

Thank you @John K for link that basically looks the same as I have in passenger side so will order one of these, how did you find this compared to your passenger one is it the same or very similar height?
And how have you found the handbrake lowering when swivelling all ok or any catchin?
thanks

It’s the same height and does the job fine although it doesn’t feel quite as substantial as the other one.

The handbrake bracket does an OK job of lowering but puts the handbrake lever too close in to the base so it doesn’t clear the seat. I added a 2 inch spacer which sorted it out, although it’s still quite tight.

Actually swivelling the driver’s seat is a bit of a faff as the steering wheel tends to get in the way, but it is doable. Having both seats on swivels is brilliant though when I’m living in the van.
