Reversing seats with only one floor rail
I am thinking of reversing the middle seat but my Bongo only has one big rail for both middle and rear seats in stead of front and rear rails, so can it still be done?

Re: Reversing seats with only one floor rail
You should have one long rail per side (thats normal unless you have rear flip up seats, or the rare as rocking horse poo 'captains chairs'. There are instructions on the forum on how to do it, but it involves removing both seats & runners from the tracks/rails, then refitting the front set of runners the other way round.

Let me get my head around this.
I have Two rails fitted to the floor running front to back.
I thought thgis could only be done if you had separate front and rear rails, so the fronts are reversed and the rears stay the same?

Cool - I guess you found this: http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/ ... =43&t=9562.
Plenty of lapbelts around from all the seats that get removed, but the mounting holes under the seat will only allow one to be fitted in the centre of the seat. You could get some new mounting points welded to the frame. I don't believe it is compulsory to have lap/seat belts on rear facing seats, but it would be better to be on the safe side.
