Middle seat location?

1

Hi all,
I’ve got hold of a 2 seat middle and 3 seat rear from a caravelle.

After attempting to install the middle seat, I’ve found there are no holes drilled from factory in my van. So I’m not sure exactly where it is positioned from factory.

Would anyone with a middle seat installed or with the factory holes be able to take some photos and measurements? I’ve currently placed it at 450mm fron the step up front and 600mm from the outside edge

I’ll post up a photo soon of where I’m at so far…
When the photo loading pixie is finished messing with me. The photo Pixie said to resize to 60%

There is a big LPG tank where the rear seat would go, so I’m not installing the rear seat unless the gas compliance people tell me I can’t keep the LPG tank (engine runs far better on gas than petrol).

Hi Leon, I will get some measurements of mine over the week end.
Do you have the rails to go with the seal? Factory has rails bolted to the floor so the seat simply slides in/out as required.
If you do not have the bolt holes, you most likely do not have seat belt bolts also?

If you intend to have a mod plate installed, it would be worth chatting to someone who can compliance it also in case they want it installed a specific way (added support to the nuts, high tensile bolts etc)

If you have a Telstra (panel van) they are not designed to have rear seats like the Kombi/Caravelle.
