The easiest replacement is to remove the passenger seats and seat base, fit another battery box from a scrapper (it uses the same bolt spacings so is a direct fit), and then fit Ford Galaxy / VW Touran / Seat Alhambra seats. They have the swivel bases and are exactly the same bolt/rail spacing as a Transit so are a no-modification fit.
Could make them fit if your not worried about the driver seat swiveling, but would need to fabricate brackets etc , I've got vw camper seats in mine that were fairly straightforward to fit/ make brackets for, yours would be a challenge though, loads of people fit ford galaxy seats with swivels to vansnedforceone wrote:I think breaker mean get the metal box for a drivers seat (where the batteries live) and use that for the base of the passenger seat.
You could make them seats fit I suppose but you would have to relocate the batteries somewhere. N

My passenger seat is an identical one to the drivers seat just has a swivel mechanism under it with transit single seat box.
