I found a post on Smallmotorhome.co.uk from 2011 where someone has "fitted two passenger side front seats from a Berlingo van. They are the type that fold completely flat into tables.
I had to modify one of the frames to accommodate the seat belt plug on the other side.
It's fantastic, the front seats now fold flat the same height as the rear bench when it's folded down, my bed can literally go from dash to boot."
They are no longer active on there but has anyone else done this to a 2006 Berlingo ? Adapting the seatbelt plug isn't a problem but I can't see how a passenger seat base will fit the drivers side as the mounting place slopes up by the gearbox tunnel

Funny you mention quick fold flat front seats.
I have a pair of B9 Multispace front seats going spare. I bought them to fit into my M59 Berlingo, which has the seats that wind flat - very time consuming. But now I have other plans for my M59 and don't need these seats.
If there's any interest, let me know.

Are the floor mounts the same? What colour are they? I might be over to Wales later in the year so if you still have them, I could take a look.

Editing my earlier post above, I have more carefully measured my B9 seats against my M59 seats, and both are the same width - the B9 seats just look wider because they have a more 'padded' shape.
The subframe underneath is different, but I reckon a bit of juggling would allow B9 seats to fit the earlier models - and of course they are 'fold flat with one click'.
I have a pair going begging.

Thanks for the update, if I'm over in Wales and if you still have them I'll pop round to take a look.
What colour are the seats?

Seat colour? Mid grey, with pale blue inserts along the sides.
And I'm on the lookout for a blue drivers seat in good condition for my M59. My present seat is torn.
