I bought a swivel base with a vw bottom style part and a universal fitting top, i'e jus 4 holes that any seats will fit, but i haven't found the supplier since, he's in Essex somewhere i think.

I have fitted Saab seats in my van.
I followed the instructions on wiki.

The job went OK but took longer than I thought it would on the first seat.
You need an angle grinder, a drill, some spanners, a tape measure, a few bolts, some suitable spacer fittings, I used brass plumbing compression joints, and a fair bit of patience. Vans just gone through an MOT and the fitting security satisfied the MOT man.
If get stuck doing it, or want any more details, PM me.
