    oh really that sucks!
    I,ll still ring them anyway! and a few others I found. There has to be a solution surely Im not the only cheapskate (read dosnt want to pay more for a seat than I paid for the van) that wants this set up.

    Ok rang around again...
    Trakka say they dont do anything for the t4 (so who built the trakka t4s?)
    I found Fontline in penrith? That will build a rock n roll seat (by the sound of it) install and engineer it for $2800. Which isnt bad but it is half the price I paid for the van!!
    So Original rear 2 seaters, where do they mount in relation to the sliding door, can I offset it to that side? Can they be moved elsewhere (backwards/forwards) easily. I looked underneath mine but cant find any mounting holes and didnt have time to remove the interior to check.
    What about the seatbelt mounts and how wide are these seats?
    Sorry for all the questions but I dont know anyone with one I even drove around looking for some but only found 2 seater versions no rear seats.
    Thanks heaps, Nik

    Do you have the details of the company you rang in Penrith Nik. I tried Frontline in Brookvale but they will only do full conversion, cost more than the van ( another cheap skate here lol ). Thanks

    Yeah no worries mate, frontline 99390600
    Does anyone have some info on the twin seat set up? Although thinking about it Im still going to have to engineer it so the cost goes up. Makes $2800 for an engineered r&r bed more attractive lol.

    Ive been talking to macron campers and hes happy to build somthing for me.
    We have talked a few times but what he usally builds wouldnt be suitable as the swb is to short and the bed dosnt extend fully just moves forward abit then lays flat.
    I want somthing like the uk guys so I need info on the hinges and possibly build type plans.
    Somthing like this

    Hi Vannin
    I am looking for a two seater bed/seat like you were. I am from Newcastle. How did you get on? did you find some where that can do this?
