single seat in - ideas for centre console

[Lee J]

OK, I have got hold of a single passenger seat for my MK6. When I fit this I am going to have a slightly wider gap in between the seats than at the moment.

Any ideas wht I could do with this space? Any ideas for a centre console or storage or what? If so, what would I make it out of or would one from another car/van/truck fit?

Dont want to leave it with a gap.

ideas please, no matter how daft!

If you didn't want the gap, can I ask why you wanted a single seat?

[Lee J]

yep, double seat is too uncomfortable for distance work. I only have one passenger up front and the single seat has the height and reclining option.

[FredTransit]

Ah right, you replaced it with another driver's seat. Aren't single passanger seats are usually fixed?

A fridge

Nah, Ive replaced it with Ford's single passenger seat which on the Mk6 is optional. It has full movement control like the drivers seat and looks the same as a drivers but the arm rest and seat belt clip is on the other side.

fridge? now theres a thought!

[Lee J]

this is one...

On my last jumbo I bolted an ammo box in this space, was ideal for my valuables, maps, and all the other bits a shite you collect. On top of that I got a dense bit of foam and with the help of me ma, made a nice little cover for it (bless her) so I could still have a kip across the seats without having me arse hanging down.
I know what your on about Lee, ive managed to get myself a single seat, so the double bank is gonna go soon, but I haven’t sourced the single seat bulk head yet, and I aint willing to pay the 480 euros from Ford.

good idea there!

Get a storage box out an exBT mk5. be the right height then

[Nathan_Cardiff]

Theres loads of toys you could fit, id get a custom box made up by someone clever with MDF and fibrglass...and then get it covered with vinyl or paint it.

You could fit a screen, DVD player, Kettle, as mentioned a fridge or safe

What do you get in the middle if its factory fitted with 2 front seats?

How about a bloody great sub woofer and then when you get some ponce in an N reg Honda Civic come vibrating down the road, you can give him some of his own medicine
