What Have You Bought Today?




 



Are you looking to sell your old ones? Im looking for set to paint
 
Can I ask if these are easy to fit? was thinking of buying one for a short term holiday boost to seating capacity
If you have the California/Caravelle rails the single seats are not too bad, they fold down into a reasonable size to manhandle in and out, just the usual precautions of not snagging anything.

I'm not sure I would regularly want to be lifting the removable sections of rails though, strikes me that you could end up with wear there or the removable alu sections not lining up neatly with the fixed.

great info thanks
 
Have a look here to see what's involved, the tip of lifting out the seat and rotating 90 degrees in the van and then lifting it to remove is key as it means you're not trying to do all the alignment and heavy lift in one move.

Yes pretty easy.
The trims come out & go in pretty easily

Yes they will show marks eventually, but they will anyway if you slide seats as much as we do

Basically fold a single flat, slide to the front (having taken the trims out) & lift out, the 4 feet locate into the 4 recesses in the rails when you want to put one in.

Yeah it's not that hard taking out the single seats, they're heavy but can be lifted by one person.

The silver tops only insert one correct way so hard to get wrong tbh.

Taking the headrest off is also recommended and/or sliding the front seat forward. Without that there's not enough room to slide the rear seat forward enough.
