3rd row seat/bed assembly.

neilmcc_98
 

Hi,

I'm new to the group. Does any know where I could buy a used 3rd row
seat/bed assembly?

Thanks
Miles Koppersmith
 

Would that be for the Eurovan MV, the Eurovan Weekender, or the Eurovan Camper?

What year is your van?

Is it a MV/MV Weekender or Winnebago full camper?

Carl,

It would be a 1993 MV? It is NOT a camper or poptop.

Thanks

The MV and Weekender rear seat is the same...folds out into a bed. A
recycler would be your best bet.

The GLS seat is the same width but with more contours and does not make into
a sleeper.

The camper seat is narrower but makes into a narrow bed.

The GLS seat vs. the MV/MV Weekender seats also have entirely different mountings as well. Won't interchange.

Thanks for the info. Being that I have the GLS, Can a get the MV and
Weekended rear seat to retro-fit?

Do you know where I can get a used 3rd row seat/bed assembly?

Thanks again,
Neil

You would need to add tracks to the floor at least, not sure what
else. Without the back padded area behind the rear seat it would be a
small bed. Also, the MV has the center seats mounted backwards so that
there is enough room to pull the rear bench forward. You would have to
remove the center seat(s) to open the bed.

So, I'm thinking this would be a major change.

Basically if you want an MV set up you will have to either trade for
an MV or find a junked one. The front seat bases are different with
attachments for the center seats, center seats are different, rear
bench is different, and platform behind rear seat is different. And,
all floor attachments are different.

Steve,
?
It sounds like some more fine German engineering.? Why would VW do that?? It is not cost effective to have two different styles of seats.?
?
I had a line on the 1993 Volkswagen Eurovan GL that I want to have the 3 row bed and convert to the 1.9 diesel.
?
I only have $3,000 to spend.
?
suggestions?

It is not cost effective to have two different styles of seats.
The MV vs. CL/GL/GLS though had a different purpose and that sometimes is justification enough. If we always took the "different styles are not cost effective" approach, every car model would have one trim line only and few/no options.
Neil McConville
 

what I'm talking about is the infra-structure for the seats and bodies.? the company can change the "styles" all they want.? When it comes time to "bolt" it on everything should be the same.

With the table that opens and the reverse seats in the MV the same
bolting pattern simply would not work. I agree that ideally it would
be best to keep the infrastructure the same if possible, but in this
case the differences were significant enough that they apparently
couldn't.

Thanks Steve,
I appears it would NOT be worth get a CL to convert to a MV type.
