Fitting the Rear Seats | TRC Van Conversion 4.0 

A great video, nice and thorough and covers all the important bits around secure fitting as far as I understood too. Hot glue is a great tip!

Great Video i am a total novice the information was very informative and as a parent wanted to ensure a proper installation was carried out and found the information and advice very helpful I never even thought about having to notify DVLA or my insurance company or even being able to get it checked at my local garage to meet regulations all very good safe and practical advise thank you so much.

Love that your dad the engineer has steel toe caps on and you have your Flip flops on! 😆

Hot glue worked pretty good on mine. I put a wide double seat from a 2018 Ford Transit in my 2000 Ford E250. I had crossmembers in the way so I couldnt span the whole bracket with one plate. I had to break the plate underneath up into 3 plate pieces using 4 bolts on each seat bracket (1, 2, 1 if that makes sense) from the 2018 Transit. They are really solid, thanks for the hot glue tip.

Hi, We have been watching you fitting out your family vsn, great job with the seats, your girls will travel in total safety, We'll be watching, thanks for sharing.Blessings! !!!!!!

Proper job ,I just purchased a 2012 nv200 ,I’m a builder and part time dad so I’m gonna try and copy your video,my only concern is my van has a plywood floor,love a challenge me,good work lads 👍

Good effort you could tell you were knackered at the end!

Great set of videos! We are about to start our conversion and they are a huge help.

Good video mate... I'm just about to fit seats in the back of our VW T4 and have been really worried about doing it safely... basically had the same idea as you ..overkill with the supporting members. It's so hard finding information on HOW to do it properly. Im going to speak with a local coach build place to get some facts... but I think you've done a good safe job. Cheers

That single seat, if you fold it down you can use it as a mini-table. That was one of the features of a Renault Espace (2003) which we used quite a bit when travelling as it had cup holders built in. Just a thought which could be useful. Any love your videos, Keep them up!!

Can’t beat help from Dads lol 😆 Neat job again 👍

Perfect video, I was starting to get nervous about fitting mine before I watched this. 👍🏻

love the safety footware. hahahah looking good though nice and secure...........good job dad :)

Good call on the type of seats. I've got a bench seat in the back of mine and it's neither comfortable nor space saving. Did make me laugh seeing flip flops and a boiler suit... : )

Great Job can't wait to see the final result

U got link for the seats please

They look great!

Looking for the seperate video on choosing the seats :-(

How many bolts on each rail and what size bolts please?

Brilliant stuff! Looking forward to hearing more about seat choice

Hi, would you be kind enough to provide the measurement of the double seat please? Would be great if it was from say cabin floor drop and the van side? I need to work out how much space it uses. Thank you in advance.

Great job, well done.

Hi I’m looking at fitting these seats into my swb boxer and I got a comment from a guy saying they where abit low in his opinion, interested to know what your thoughts with regards to height when mounted straight onto the floor like yours, any comments appreciated cheers

Lovely work

I've just getting the 2018 model tourneo custom seats in

Do you know if you can make you own frame to make the seats higher and still get it passed thank you

Hi, such a great video, thanks! I’ve been using it as a guideline for my conversion. But... with you mentioning you’ve altered your insurance who did you find and end up using that accepted the modification? I’ve purchased the same seats and just got of the phone to my insurance who’ve said that it’s rare any insurance would accept the modification even if it passed an MOT Inspection as it’s such a high risk. Thanks again and take care

I love your work and thinking, just a (possibly ill informed) question regarding the nylon nuts. Are they not a weak point? Would it not be better to use two ordinary nuts per bolt locking each other?

Did you only use 2 bolts per track? I've just bought similar and its come with 4 bolts per track?

Where did you buy the rails for holding the seat to the floor and where did u buy the seat

Hello, any chance you could take some measurements of a single rear seat: how high from the floor level is the front edge of the seat? distance between the mounting rail centres? Thanks!

Very detailed video 👍

Could the seats be fitted sideways instead of the conventional way you have?

mayI know if your front double passenger seats can turn around as well? the original factory double front passenger seats can't turn around..

Nice job! 👍clever use of the glue gun too! I want to do the same thing to my transit custom. But also want to be able to turn the seats around. Do you know if the seats clip into the brackets facing rear wards as well? Cheers

Hi there. I know this video is a couple of years old, but it is really helpful and informative. I wanted to know the height of the Ford seats as I am going to use the exact same seats in my Citroen relay but I wanted to put a table between the driver seat (on swivel) and rear seats and have that as dining area. The only issue I can see is because the main driver and passenger seats are much higher, is this even possible in your opinion? Ive really been scratching my head with this one but I cant see a safe way of even raising the rear seats. Thanks Zach

Hot glue gun 👍nice idear . Better to over kill than under kill

Can you tell me about regulations and registry issues regarding this? Should it be similar in the netherlands?

Looks great, nice work. Did the steel underneath go in parallel with the rails or did you run it from right to left? Was a bit hard to see as its dark. Thanks.

oh man i love these videos ..i so want to do this

Did you use m12 bolts?

We’ve got a LWB Peugeot Boxer, which we’ve just started converting. Your videos have been our bible! They really are helping us navigate what is quite a daunting task for amateurs. Quick question on the seats...have you had them signed off yet? I’m a bit confused as who needs to sign them off. There differing advice online - only at MOT, local mechanic now or MOT centre now?

Great video. The tracks look like they're raised to accommodate a sub-floor. How deep are they?

Great job. I've been planning to get the same seats fitted in mine. Is there much of a different in level between the cab seats and these seats? I'm hoping to raise mine up and build a floor level with the cab.

Hi Tim, Have been following your videos closely as i plan to start my own van later in the year. I am very interested in these seat you have used but cant find the dimensions anywhere online. Can you tell me the width of the double seat please. Great build, am looking forward to future videos.

Helpful video thanks. Can you tell me the width of the double seat? I’ve not been able to find that info anywhere

What seats are those?

Great video. I would love to know the brand of these seats

Hi How do you take the seats off the rails. Just bought a pair and cant get them back off!

Hi, can you please tell me where you bought and what seats are?

Can they lye flat?

were did you buy the seats from?can you give asa alink,pls?thank you

Where did you source the rear seats from? Looks great

Thinking of adding the same to a t5 as the seats look great tge way they can fold forward. I could do it myself but heard that some insurers want a certificate to prove fitment. Have you had that or been asked that? Cheers

Used those seats in mine

The girls could play “Find the Lost Tool Game”!!

Why do you need six seats? :)
