Anyone got this? Or know of how I can do it as I want a single seat up front for the passenger to allow room in the middle for a custom hatch im doing.

Is it a case of buy another single seat and remove double refit with single or is it not that straight forward :?:

Where would the best place be to source a single passenger seat? Left hooker?

EDIT: Anyone got a tourneo passenger seat?

Its a seat and base, I had a single seat factory fitted, on the single passengers seat the seat belt anchors on the side of the seat , does it do that on a double ? if its the same , O.K. if its different it may be little things like that , that make the conversion a bit of a pain. also, I have never seen a single seat for sale, there not that many vans about that had them fitted.

No the seatbelt is not part of the seat on the double

Any chance you could show me a picture of your single seat please from front on angle as id like to see where the seats sits and what space there is between the drivers and passenger seat itself.

I'm not sure what you wanted a photo of, so here's a few, if there's anything in particular you want, let me know.

Brill, thanks for that. So the seats are the same setup as the double seat so thats a bonus.

Just need to find one now.

Basically being a floorlayer I have to carry the odd role of carpet as sometimes its a last minute thing and I dont have or want a roofrack so the plan is (which it has been since I got the van over a yr ago :roll:

) is to change the double to a single seat and adapt the lower bulkhead with more of an opening so I can slide the whole length in without folding it in half like ive had to in the past. The gap looks about right between the 2 seats

Have you considered the integrated roof rack? It'll be there if you need it whenever, and fold itself away when you don't. Be a lot cheaper than swapping wheats over, too, I'd have thought.

If you don't want to go down that route, I have a single passenger seat, and I reckon the gap between the drivers seat would easily accommodate a roll of carpet.

Yes I did consider the roof rack but want to not have to put the carpets on the roof plus the foldable racks are mega expensive imo. Im still on the lookout for a single passenger seat but finding one is near impossible at the minute!

Join the hunt!

What ive found so far is there are a lot of crew cab seats with the single seat available being sold and yes its possible to fit that single seat upfront but its not heated and I prefer to have the heated option for my passenger. I know of a company that supposed to be looking into sourcing me a genuine seat but have yet to get back to me.

I have two single seats in my van, both heated. Would be quite entrested in swapping my single for a heated double. Seat is black cloth. Would this void Warrenty though?.

How much work is involved In swapping seats? Also I would only be in entrested if it's the same colour as my drivers seat And my Warrenty is not voided. I'm based in berkshire

Hello all,

I have a new 2016 Ford Custom with a single front seat on the passenger side which I would like to swap with anyone with a double passenger front seat.

If there is anyone who is interested in a swap I would greatly appreciate it if you could contact me on:

07917785457
or martin@mobility-services.com.

I am based in Armagh, Northern Ireland.

Thanks
