It sounds like what you have is not actually a Caravelle bed, but a Westfalia one. This would have been removed from a Westfalia camper, and installed in your bus at some stage. I might be wrong though - I'm hardly an expert!

Sounds like you have a multivan seat not a caravelle. There are 2x types of multivan seats,one bolts into the side of the body and uses the locking pins,the other type bolts to the floor and has no rear locking pins.
