Hello All,
Just read a post and it said berlingo with bench seat. I have a 2 seater 56 plate van would the newer seats fit in so I could have 3 seats?
Cheers Jay

Possible provided the mounting holes are present ,you might be wise to have a peek first, but its not as straightforward as it first appears.
You are looking for for the passenger-side seat set from an Enterprise spec model-although other models could have them as option extras.The drivers seat will remain as-is
Bear in mind its one and half seats so your middle passenger would have to be the little one.
And not feel uncomfortable with you groping his legs on gearchanges........:eek:
You'll also need to get the seatbelt arrangement too-not sure about Mk2 but in Mk 3 the middle belt is hung off the drivers bulkhead ladder and plugs in alongside the other passenger one.
Again from a MK3 perspective the passenger seats are uncomfortable due to the 'useful storage space' hollowed out underneath and also lose all adjustability.
It is on my to do list.
But not right at the top

I had a similar requirement a few years ago -I made my own full bulkhead and set it back 18" into the loadspace .
I made up some seat pads and a backrest so the boy could sit behind the passenger seat facing across the van.
Great hiding place ,he loved it and on long journeys often I found him asleep.
It is on my to do list.
