Today I got my passenger seat done! For those of you who do not know, the plan with my passenger seat is to change it out for one that folds flat and to build a drawer/sleeping platform at that level so that when I go out on short weekend trips or overnighters, I can sleep in the 70. I originally had a rear passenger seat from a Mercedes and I worked on it forever to try to get it to work, but in the end it was too difficult so I picked up a rear passenger seat from a RAV4 as it looked like a good candidate to fit. The seat folds flat, which is my requirement, and it also flips up, which I really don't need.
The RAV4 seat is at the right height when bolted to the suspension part of the seat, but it is too far forward if just bolted straight to the suspension so I had to make a couple of adaptors to bolt the RAV4 seat to the suspension and get it positioned correctly.
