Hi all,

I got hold on a set of rails to put in my 85 westy, but I am missing the special brackets

Is it possible to get them anywhere?

Alas, I do not know the source for those.

The Bus Depot shows them available. You only need 2 to hold the seat in but if you got the complete rail covers and want to use them you might need as many as the rail covers have holes for.

I'd get some used ones, should be around.

I believe I have some extras for sale. I am cleaning out my garage attic.

If you need them in Denmark this European source might be a better choice, cheaper and closer.

If I’ve not yet thrown them away.....

You’re welcome to them. Pay the postage and they’re yours.

I removed the middle bench from my 1981 Sun Roof vanagon.
It was a short middle bench.

In fact the bench is buried under the snow in my yard too.
Confused

EDIT: sorry missed the Denmark local. Probably too spendy to ship.

Yep. Me too on the Denmark location. I am sure they will turn up on the used market somewhere near you. 😀

Thanks!

I will have a go with the European site.

The set is from a joker and the covers have 2 holes each.



Thes rest of the hardware needed looks like standard, right?

I have read all the different posts on this midle seat mod, but I have failed to understand if a two-seat bench WITH armrests will fit? It seems some say yes and others says no...

Here is mine in a Westy if that helps with how it fits. (The slider closes snug against the arm rest.) I am not if this style middle seat is a different width than the one you posted.

Ok - I will make an exact messurement and evaluate.


Would anyone have the 3 pieces marked as no 9 laying around?
