I'll definitely be watching this one. If you are gonna do a complete refit, I'll have the front seats off ya and put em in my Man Cave ! Seriously !
That way I'll have a memento from it until I get another. I'll be watching out for this thread and your posts very closely :0)

So today I set about removing the rear interior of my bus. We have decided to keep the front seats as they are so nice and well made.
