3 seats Infront of t25

Hive mind!
I'm looking to turn my 5 seater T25 into a 6 seater by adding a third seat in the front - bonus points if it becomes a bed too but essential.
I've seen Tins' do the long bench across the front which folds out to make bunks and a sofa in the back which looks great!
Before I invest a grand in Tins bench, has anyone seen anything similar as a comparison?

Bench in front? Handbrake becomes rather inaccessible, hill starts very tricky.

Changing gear could become tricky if three up front, also may be an MOT issue due to handbrake access, I would consult your MOT person before going ahead to see what their opinion is although this could differ from garage to garage.

The Tins kit comes with a bracket to move the handbrake so that's not an issue.

My pickup has the factory standard three seats in the front, also available in buses, with a full width bulkhead.

My syncro has a two seat bench and single seat drivers with a half height bulkhead. Absolutely no problems with handbrake or gear lever, plenty of room. its how it was built!
if anyone remembers the camperjam syncro run, I carried 2 passengers all day around the course with no real problems except when they were particularly large persons, (can I say that in tis PC age?) still managed anyway.

Do you know if there is anything that can be used instead of a half height bulkhead? Like a single crossbar possibly?
