Thank you!

1. Tilt seat forward
2. Slide seat forward
3. Rotate 180
4. Tilt seat back
takes about 2 mins. the swivel plate is offset 2" towards the center of vehicle to allow seat to clear when rotating

It looks like your passenger seat is a power seat model. I was told you could not put a swivel on a power seat. Where did you get the swivel for it and did you have any problems with the install as far as the electric wires are concerned?

Hey thanks for getting back to me so quickly, Appreciate the info. I like the stance of your van, mine isn't quite where I would like it to be yet. I have to replace the drivers side torsion bar, couldn't crank the new keys up, shouldn't be worn out with so little miles (77k) but from what I have read is a common problem with GM vehicles(vans, trucks and suv's) plus need to find the wheels and tires combo I like, shooting for a 32" on 18" wheel.
