mods to load space/extra seats

[matstar89]

Hi all as requested ive taken a few pics to what ive done in the load space in my t2 commercial, ive got a couple of extra seats in also, theyr'e the 6th and 7th fold down seats from a disco. theyre not strictly egal or bolted in to spec but theyre never really used, just there in case of desperation!
many thanks matt

i've got a set of T2 swb rear seats in the back of my T2 commercial and they fit perfect!

Odd but i don't think you need rer seat belts in extra seats fitted to a commercial vehicle, but you do need to tell your insurance company!

No seatbelt rule only applies to side facing seats

 

[matstar89]

do they fold down flush so you've still got full load space?

no mate, i think it applies to any seats! i've just googled it to check and it seems to be the case. I found this out fomr a company that sepcialised in rear seat fitments to vans.

Though your insurance company may insist on them! and an engineers report!

Mine would certainly never pass an engineers report unless wood screws are a reconised method of fitting seats, and i dont have belts. good job theyre main purpose is to support the fold down load space!

belts are an easy fix, just get some out of a T2 the mounting points are already there. Some for the seats.

 

[matstar89]

do your seats fold down flat?

who's, mine? yes the bottom squab flips forward behind the front seats then the back folds down flat. The floor is shaped to take them (after you remove the plastic and polystyrene panel)
