Magnificent result! I like it!
Experts make it look so easy! 😀
There's nowt easy is there! I'm jolly glad that wasn't me doing any of that. Thank goodness for Mr Beard! Clever man. A gem. An nteresting video, keeping an interested eye on "how things happen" ... always plenty to learn. Thanks for sharing this one. In no time at all the rest of the van will be done... or not!! Take good care of yourself and that lovely Missus. Love, Pam xx

Thank you so much! Yes I was very glad not to be asked to help this time 😂. Shaun and Jed did a great job!
Looks a great seat
Great place great guys
Stumbled across this looking for something similar. It looks a great solution, especially with the slide. Are the seats two distinct seats with a kind of bump in the middle or is it more like a sofa or bench seat and you could spread out and sit in the middle of it comfortably?
I tbiught you had to drill into the chassis to install seats into the rear ?? I have a crafter and im looking to put seats in the back
Where did you get the bracket from?
Only issue I find with the RIB is that it can be a bit firm to sleep on. A good memory foam topper is a must. Best seat on the market

Agreed! It is a tad firm!
Hi we’re did you buy the rib bed? Thanks
Where can i buy these seats? Do you know if it is the same tüv standard for getting the car registrated in Sweden? There are a few conpanies installing these kind of seats but they cost around 40-50000sek!
Roast a nice Turkey on that. 🤣
interested to know which rib bed this is just embarking on my own crafter conversion and this looklike exactly what I need

Hi- a question- can you drive that vw van in a standard car license? In other words is it 3.5 tonnes or less with the full camper conversion?
@ABusAndBeyond

Yes it is.
I thought with a crash tested bed you had to fix it to the chassis to get the required strength to meet the test results.
As well as sliding front and back does it slide side to side?
@gavinwinters17

sorry, how far does it slide sideways?
did you use two brackets around the chassis like Urban Ark Overland or just one to the rear ?
@ABusAndBeyond

I used just one bracket on the rear and big square washers in the front

It’s not too far off, a little lower than the front seats but liveable. We built the floor up a little but not much
