Seats needs recovering the passenger seat has had a frame fitted to support the back as the bulkhead was removed from the van. This should be able to removed easily but the hinge points will need some work.
Yep, i gave up looking for cheap tombstones bought some mx5 seats instead, £100 for both, retrimmed with westy cloth, fitted late bay rails to the underside so they slide on and off the late bay runners (no new holes to drill) so i also retained my original westy rotating passenger seat these sit about 1" lower than stock seats btw. i looked at several options and chose these cos i didn't want to drill any new holes, plus some of the other options people use end up with you sitting higher up which i wanted to avoid. the mx5 seats are way more comfortable that my refurbished og seats, also have heater elements although i've not hooked those up yet.

They're very Gentleman's Club Matty. I'm amazed @davidoft hasn't had your hand off for them. They'd go lovely with his smoking jacket and paisley cravat.
I can get them delivered easy enough, I’ve got some with headrests for te-trim, some without, some nice ones with headrests some Without
it wasn't cheap, but a super quality job so i was happy to pay. i sold my original westy seats so overall it was cashflow neutral (ish).
yeah they look sweet and your right most seats sit too high I like them a lot may have to have a look for them mind you the upholstery makes the seat
Our seats aren’t originals. Being over 6ft tall, but having little short legs, means I need as much headroom as I can get. I noticed how the inner wheel arches dip under the original seats and remembered how some seats on old Toyota vans have thin bases that also have a ‘bulge’ for padding underneath. I picked a pair up from a local breakers yard for £25 and had them recovered when we had the van interior done. They are great as they have adjustable headrests and the levers to tilt the backs forward and store bits behind against the walkthrough bulkheads. The thin bases gave me additional headroom too. I just had to make brackets for the runners and drill/plate the inner arches where the bolts go through. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
