Mk2 seats

[ColinJack]

Right aficionados ... Baz the Mk2 camper has well worn seats. Do I re-cover or will later seats fit (with a minor amount of modification)?

[Retrohowla]

I've seen mk5 seats in a mk2 but i didn't look at how they were mounted

[Luke]

depends if you want originality or not - later seats arnt a difficult fit but they are much more comfortable

[ColinJack]

I'm for comfort over original.

[ColinJack]

Next question - anybody got a decent pair of smiley seats at a decent price?

[ColinJack]

Or mk3 but then that is a tad ambitious!

[Retrohowla]

Oh the things ive thrown out over the years, a mint set of mk4 vinyl seats, "when am i ever going to need them" i asked myself, little did i know i would need them about 2 months later

[ColinJack]

Threw them out?! OMG noooo!

[Retrohowla]

It was 8 years ago, i was moving house, i had a big purge of the garage and all that, just before i realised MK2 seats were, umm, just awfull

[ColinJack]

I hate to think what else you threw out!

[Retrohowla]

It would make grown men cry, i am testament to that! I did save the DI and MT75 though, but what went down the tip was criminal

I fitted a later double seat into my Mk2. Small issues with the securing catch but bolted straight in in lieu of the single seat.

Hiya, are you looking for single or double passenger seat ? Loads of Smileys up here that are going begging, no good to me as mine are all older. I'm sure your Postie will hate me though !

[ColinJack]

Now got Baz back and driving 200 miles on those seats was deeply uncomfortable!
Anybody got a decent pair of Mk5 front seats they want to flog?

[Mad machinist]

Colin, dont the front seats make up part of bed?
