Are my seats "standard"???

My front seats are well past their best now so I'll be looking at replacing / refurbing them soon... The thing is, as my setup involves the front seats fully reclining to form part of the bed I need the exact same seats... I've kind of assumed all along that
my seats were probably part of the conversion but would love to hear that they are infact standard and all T25 seats fully recline. If not then does anyone know what seats they might be? :ok

Telling us what conversion it is and a picture would certainly help :wink:

I have an Autocruiser Diamond RV... the lack of someone saying "they all do that" kinda answers my question regarding them being non-standard! I figured if someone else had fully reclining seats then they'd maybe hazzard a guess that mine may be the same! A picture is pretty pointless I think now as they really just look like any old non-headrested car seat.... t'is the function of fully reclining that makes them what they are.

So (re-phrasing question)... does anyone know of any seats that fully recline with no/removable headrest??? :run

I think I can tell from what you have suggested, that your seating arrangement is quite different from most T25 campervan conversions (Westys, Autohomes etc)

Most of us will have a the sink/cooker/fridge unit directly behind our drivers seat so these seats would not have anyway of being in a fully reclined position. The seat in the back of most of these standard conversions folds to make a bed that is big enough to sleep on without the front seats offering any additional sleeping space.

It does sound like refurbishment of your seats might be your best option, if your conversion is as rare as I suspect.

Hope that helps.

I don't think Autocruisers are that rare - I've seen a good few around. I think the seats are most likely part of the conversion.

After Googleing I realise now that an Autocruise is not some sort of T25 coachbuilt, but an actual RV. So that's a whole diferent ballgame then.

It's just another camper conversion - albeit one with a rather different layout than the others.
