I'm selling the bars and feet from mine, as I no longer need them, also have a roof basket as well that I will probably not use much now.
Would you like some pics? (you would still need to get the poptop brackets from gunzle or futbus)

you can obviously use it with or without the waterproof cover. The bars can go anytime, but the basket the wife likes. So might take a couple weeks to prise it out of her hands :lol:

it will go in, but the multivan seat is designed to be used with the matching moulded plastic side panels which are only available in lhd, unless you can cut and shut the plastic panels and the table fittings to suit a rhd van then you are left with 3" gaps down the side of the seat and you will have to fashion some strong back rest supports as the plastic panels also provide the stop/support for the rear of the seat
there are people who have modified the plastic panels to rhd but it's not easy to do well and if done badly will look pants and or the table won't function - that table has a mega strong frame which fits to the body betwen the b and c panels - it's fun enough fitting it correctly into a lhd van that wasn't originally a multivan - been there done that, have that interior in mine, it'll be a bit more work on a rhd van and as for chopping the panels you'll only get one chance to do it right
There are plenty of other rhd interiors out there and you can always make your own r and roll bed using the bluebird or similar designs of frame, there are some very high quality r and r seats designed for the T4/5 some of which may also fit a T3
I bought a cheap lhd van knowing that I could fairly easily retrofit a multivan interior and at the time they weren't too expensive either (6 years ago I paid £300 complete all present bar one small trip strip - has a big coffee stain on it but cleaned isn't too noticeable)
I know where there's a reupholstered multivan rear seat with matching reupholstered captains seats, done in a grey LandRover Discovery material - won't be to everyone's taste, and non original so spoilt for some, but unless you have £800 to spend definately and won't mess the seller around I won't even pass on the info

stick a new post up in bodywork and interiors and in campers and see what other peeps have to say/advise, also try brickyard as there are some intersting peeps on there that don't post on here, don't post it in the syncro section, put it in the relevant area, it's not a syncro specific question
