Hey good job on the van!

Any pics of how you mounted the seats and seatbelts?

Dont have pics but all i did was bolt a 300m long bit of angle iron to the oem seat base using the original fixing points.Then bolted o bit of angle iron to the seats stuck the seat on to the base and bolted the to bits of angle iron together.

I may of got lucky with my seats being sparco as the two bits of iron meet perfect when i lowered the seat onto the base other makes will more than likely have different fixing points on the seat.

I did it that way instead of welding the iron into place so i can go back the oem by removing four bolts on each seat.

hiya mate, did the drivers seat go straight onto the standard subframe ?

[shedrool83]

Not quite .I'll get some pics of how i did it tonight for you.

Still need to remove the seats again and tidy/paint the brackets but heres a couple of pipes if anyone is interested.





I used another driver seat base to do the passengers which fitted right in place of the bench

Tonight i removed the egr and inlet ,cleaned both out and fitted new gaskets .Just need to make a blank and hopefully i notice a difference.
Also fitted a new side door handle as it was a nightmare to open sometimes but its all good now
