MK2 Trailblazer front seats

Postby planktn » Mon Jun 05, 2017 5:56 pm

Hi All,

I've been trying to work out a way to fit our baby seat in our Mk2 Trailblazer camper and wondered if you guys had any suggestions.

At present it has 2 seats up front with 3 point belts, and I'm guessing they're the originals (which tip forward)

I'm totally new to this, so was wondering if you might be able to help me find a good double passenger seat for the wife and little fella to ride up front! Ideally something with decent back and headrest for safetys sake. (Will stash the original seats in the loft)

Thanks in advance :)

Mk5 1995-2000 front seats are a straightforward swap and have belts fitted to them :D

Just a thought if you need the seats to tip so you can use the camper bed I don't think normal transit ones will do this as standard.

Mk5 double seat will tip if you get the catch mechanism from the donor van :wink:

Thanks for the heads up all. Does anyone have or know of a double folding mk5 passenger seat and (ideally) matching drivers seat?

Thanks again!
