Front Seat Mods?

Post by XYNaPSE »

I have a 1979 transporter that has a divide behind the front bench seat. I am going to make it a walkthrough by having a professional cut out the divider. I wanted to get some different seats though. Right now the front seat is like a bench seat. I want to make it swivel captains chairs or something equivalent. I saw some Vanagon Front Swivel Seat adaptors on the Samba for sale but I'm not sure if they will work. They are from an 80 Westy. Any ideas on what I should do or where to start or anything? Much appreciated.

I think to accomodate an adaption like that you'd basically have to weld the seat base from the swivel seat vanagon to you're bus. Or else bolt them together somehow. I was thinking of doing that to my drivers seat in my 1976 Westy. The Passenger seat already swviels, but I haven't got around to doing the conversion yet. it'd be pretty nice though 8)

This is a pretty old post so i don't know if you've already done it not... lemmr kno :)
