2008 Ducato - Seat belt receiver for front passenger side

 · 
Posted: 14.06.2019  ·  #1
Hi,
I'm converting a 08 Ducato van at the moment. It originally had the 2.5 seats in front but when I bought it the van had two driver seats instead. As a result the seat belt receiver for the passenger seat is on the wrong side. So I'm looking to see if it's possible to replace the seat mount with a single seat mount that would include the mounting point for the seat belt receiver.

Alternatively, if I can pick up a left hand drive driver seat mount that would do the job but not sure how realistic that is.

Anyone had this problem or have any suggestions on how to solve it?

Thanks,
Tom

There's a guy in Arklow who breaks campers and sells off various parts, you may pick up what you need there. The company has had several changes of name over the last several years and his reputation does not appear to be very good. To buy a one off small part like that should be OK. If you search on here you'll find several references to East Coast Campers, Camperman and more. The old advice is still good, buyer beware. :up:

Is it mounted on the seat frame itself or the base that the seat is mounted on if it's mounted on the seat frame check around on the other side for a mounting position, seat frames are sometimes the same only the hardware is handed.on my sprinter the same thing was done two single seats and the twin set was mounted in the back as a bench
