Yep, it\'s a straightforward enough conversion. Got a feeling there\'s gonna be more than a few people intersted in doing a swap!!

Ha ha, I know they\'re not the biggest back seats, but they are useful; with me in the passenger seat (6\'2") I can fit my other half in the back seat (5\'4") for 10 minute journeys with no complaints (getting in is fun though...) Also, it\'s just teh right size for my little nephew; getting him training in the rotary side while he\'s still young!!

As others have said very easy to pull out bins and replace with seats, DIY job when you get the right components  :cool

Hi Simonman,

Tried to PM you but no luck (edit - guess you need to be a full member nowadays). I\'m very interested in doing a swap, if you\'re up for it please feel free to email me at ajbentley@gmail.com

Cheers,
Alex
