The only seats that fit straight into a T25 other than a panel van seat are :-

1. Caravelle

I made my conversion to Porsche seats reversible, and it was a quick fix to mount them in the T25. I just drilled a pair of extra holes in the vw runners and widened another pair of holes on the Porsche runners.

I used the instruction from wiki with the Saab 9000 conversion to drill the holes, but I didn't use any brackets.

The difficulty is acedemic.
Caravelle or any T25 fits straight in.. nothing else.
Thats what the OP asked for.
Jus sayin.

I have just been given a caravelle rear seat for my devon (need the extra seat for new arrival) it looks to me that the top half/ back mounts somewhere to each side of bus but I don't have the brakets for the top catch that stops the bed just folding flat any ideas what I am looking for or what I need to do fettling wise so I can fit the seats correctly
thanks,,,, David
