Hi
First post! And a complete newbie! I'm looking at a LHD T25. It has two swivel captain seats in the front and a rock n roll bed in the back with two seat belts. As I need another seat I was looking at buddy seats but the usual designs won't fit (no bulk head etc. to attach to). My question is would I be able to fit something like this http://www.vanbitz.co.uk/Single-Flip-up ... at/70.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; behind the passenger seat? And if so how would it go in?
Cheers for any help/ideas.

Re: T25 "Buddy" Seat
So am I way off mark here?
Has anybody got any advice on how to add an extra seat/ what seat to add (it needs a three point belt?
Maybe this? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-SHARAN-GAL ... 5d2b21671d" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Or, is there no alternative?

Re: T25 "Buddy" Seat
what conversion is the van your looking at?
westfalia multi vans have a buddy seat fitted as standard so you can get one to match the trim ect.
some other campers have them made that are also matching in trim.
they are all mounted to the floor,the westy's will have brackets welded to the floor , the otheres will simply have bolts through the floor and a nut under the van - DO NOT screw to the wooden floor!
the seat you have linked to is prob not suitable , yes it could be fitted but wont be a good job.
look for vw multivan or westfalia t25 and look at some interior pics , but it really depends on costs /skill and the quality of finished look.
