My MK 7 transit

[Tango330]

Finally got around to reading this from the start RB, cracking effort Mate Van looks really good, and so different from when you started

Couple of quick questions, did you have a drivers door pocket at the bottom of drivers door, or did you fit it and is it just a modified pass side one

Did you insulate before fitting the carpet in the back

[Tango330]

Got tired off patching up the black paint on the door cards so had them and the top part of the dash flocked,

So how does the flock on the armrests stand up to elbows resting on them RB

Thinking of doing that to mine

Have you still got the original driver's seat

Might be interested if you wanted to flog it

The first black set I made but the projectors came from 'mod your transit' and had no end of problems

Started to flatten so I made up a padded leather cover for the arm rest before it got worn out.

Got my transit seat back in as I missed having a heated backside next time I swap them I'll transfer the heated element over to my recaro seat.

Cheers

Thanks Chris, might have to think of something else for mine as my "making padded armrest" skills aren't what they might be

I got an ex AA drivers seat to put in as a single passenger, but realised it was heated/pump up, so swapped it with mine. just got it working yesterday, and boy does is get warm

So I thought I'd try and get one to put in passenger side. Anyway, not to worry, enjoy your warm butt

Hey rumble loving the van . How did you go about fitting the recaro just picked up one for mine thanks

[Darren.w]

Where did yous get the heated seat. I got an ex rac 330 but It's not heated. Not that I know of.

Cheers

[Tango330]

RB's is an ex AA, and they had the heated seat, our RAC ones don't.

Managed to get one off the Bay for mine, then had to get the loom and switch. both will just plug in and work, mine even had the fuse in place

[Darren.w]

Cheers. Had a look online couldn't see a seat. Will keep looking. I found the switch. This might sound daft but where does the switch go lol. Thanks

Switch goes into the seat base. If you look at the front face of the base (your existing one will be the same), just below the seat on the handbrake side, you'll see a nice rounded oblong shaped hole. That's the hole. Switch is the same as the Ford Ka switch, but I bought mine from dealers before I realised I could get one from the Bay

Hope all that makes sense. Gets pretty hot pretty quick

The Tourneos have the same seat as well, but they do tend to be a bit pricey. Still pretty cheap compared to buying one from Ford though.

Ah I see. Thanks will keep checking eBay thanks.
