Interesting.

What happens to the seat belt anchor point? Is the standard seat belt long enough to pull right across or do you have to fit a new anchor point?
Any videos online to see exactly how easy it is to swivel?

Hi, we are going to upload a video in the next few days. Yes the seat belt goes around the back of the seat as it turns (clockwise) and is neatly out of the way when rotated.

Do you do anything similar for the mk2 ? I would love to upgrade my seats to something more comfortable.

I've used the twin middle seat out of a Toyota Previa/Estima - I got a small sub frame built and have no problems - cost me £50 :)

Looks great. Would it also work in a minibus? Would there be space for a (removable) table between the rest and front facing seats I.e. the first two rows?

Hi, we have had so many enquires through here over time regarding our double swivel base to fit a Transit Custom, so just thought it would be easier to just drop you guys a quick post on here.

Here is the brand new double seat swivel base designed by the Customshop team (Community Registered Design 001382212-0001) The Ford Transit custom double seat swivel base is the only crash tested double passenger swivel base on the market. The locking points work on a unique 1/4 turn 'quick release' system so removing all 4 fixing bolts and rotating the base takes literally seconds! They are manufactured in the UK and made from 4mm laser cut steel (raises the seat by 45mm), and has passed seat belt anchorage safety tests using a pull test on a specialist test rig to EC Directive 76/115/EEC as amended by 2005/41/EEC which is a standard requirement for insurance companies when making this type of modification to your camper van and also peace of mind for transporting your friends and family around. The base allows you to rotate the double passenger seat 180 degrees and lock the seat in the reverse position to completely transform the living area in your van. Fits all Transit models from 2013 onwards and is available in Left hand and Right hand drive versions. Fixes directly to the existing floor mounts so no drilling required, installation takes approximately 40 mins from start to completion.

Regards
