Seat Swivel Plate for VW Crafter Mercedes Sprinter Driver (Single) Scopema

French manufactured, the RIB swivel plates are a very popular choice with campervan self-builders owing to their solid construction and smooth mechanism.

The swivel plates fit between the base and seat slider rails on normal seats and pivot on a centre location point. The swivels have European TUV safety approval and lock securely in place facing forward for driving.

Upon purchasing this item, your kit will include the swivel plate itself and bolts to fit standard seat boxes.

To rotate your seat:

Turn off the vehicle engine and release the handbrake temporarily

One the seat is facing the back of the vehicle, you can then re-engage the handbrake

If your seat has the capability to adjust up and down, you may need to adjust your seat higher to allow the seat to rotate freely without any catching

The offset feature of this swivel base means that the pivot point is offset from the centre by a few centimetres towards the handbrake meaning the seat will end up facing back a bit further away from the door. This is useful in vehicles with armrests as they will spin easier.

Please note that with Crafters they seem to be available with two heights of handbrake handle. If your handbrake is higher than the seat base, a spacer will need to be added underneath the swivel base so that it will clear the handbrake when rotated. If your seats are not height-adjustable, you will need to remove some of the plastic trim from the seat base.

Please note that this base will raise the seat by approximately 43mm
