Thanks MG gives me some options to think about. But I am guessing those wont be compatible with swivel bases ....

Base-Fab (a spin off of Expovans) makes fixed and swivel seat bases for the sienna seats that bolt directly into the existing mount locations in E series vans. They also sell seats. Jar Williams was super helpful when I was trying to figure this out last December. Web site - http://www.base-fab.com/

Yes Jer and I have been emailing as well, I owe him a response actually re: unwin tracks and mounts for the rear, just put that project on hold for a bit to figure out some other stuff first. Might just do 2 sets of sienna seats with proper mounts etc and see what the damage would be :-)

My only real hesitation is not having sat in the seats are they going to be comfortable to me, my fab shop uses the corbeus on a lot of projects so I have sat in them and know the way they feel .... though I suspect I can recoup most of my cost down the line if I found that to be the case.

6'2" I dunno, I just like em. As the old saying goes.....There's a butt for every seat.

I thought the saying was something about an a**hole??

PS--well I suppose you could be 6'2" and all torso; short legs ok with the Transit seat bottom!
