  • In this video of my VW T4 Transporter campervan conversion, I remove the original VW Transporter front seats and swap the seats with Audi TT seats, with the passenger seat on a Fasp swivel base.

    As always mate..👍👍

  • @loveandlighttattoo5947

    Just following your video to do the same in mine… Thanks very much mate. Do you put the little extra brackets (that connect the other side of the seat) on the swivel seat aswell?

    • @TheCampervanBuilder
      @TheCampervanBuilder  Před rokem

      yes the swivel bolts to the base using all original holes, then to the seat using 2 original holes for 1 side of the chair and extension brackets for the other side

    Hi tried fitting Audi seats to t5 bases the Audi seats where a lot wider so you will need the plates

    • @TheCampervanBuilder
      @TheCampervanBuilder  Před rokem

      Yes most of the seats I've fitted over the years have needed some kind of mod or mounting plate, its rare to find different seats that have the same mounting holes

    Has anyone found a solution to the handbrake problem? The T5 you can fold down with a kit but the T4 it gets in the way.

    Hi
    Do you know wether those seats will also fit straight on a vw t6 base? Regards

    • @TheCampervanBuilder
      @TheCampervanBuilder  Před rokem

      with modification, you can make any seat fit any base. These weren't direct bolt on in the original mounting holes, they needed a bit of work to fit

    Just trying to follow this to do the same, did you make the brackets yourself, or buy some?

    Hi, I am just about to change the same seats now... Have you ever connected heated seats and was heating working?

    • @TheCampervanBuilder
      @TheCampervanBuilder  Před 7 měsíci +1

      I've never had TT seats that had the heating option fitted, but I have wired up Mazda RX8 seats with the heated option. If you have heated seats, just wire them to a switch so they can be turned on & off and also place an inline fuse for safety

      I am about to fit Audi TT heated seats into my T4 and would love to get heating working 🙂🙂

    Does the bulkhead give any rigidity to the shell?

    • @TheCampervanBuilder
      @TheCampervanBuilder  Před rokem +1

      it would but isn't needed as these vans can also come with no bulkhead at all

  • @Stark16905
    @Stark16905 Před 5 měsíci

    Would it be possible to add an apapter plate to this swivel/base for my Audi seats to swivel without any obstructions?

      Not at all, already been on a 4 hour road trip to Scotland and they are very comfortable. It's not my first time using these seats so knew what I was getting
