Subject: How close is a 86 wolfsburg westy (weekender) interior to a carat              interior..

>Is the rear bench metal like the later ones or wood like a full camper?
Plywood.  The padding is a little thinner than that of a full Westy.

>Can a carat rear seat with headrest be swapped exactly?
I don't know.  The carat rear seat ruins your flat sleeping surface, so why do it?

> Would double removable jump seats be hard to put in?

The rear facing seat in a Wolfsburg Westy is bolted to the floor.  You might be able to retrofit a rear facing seat behind the passenger seat.

>Are the panels the same as the carat interior?
I don't know.

This is a farily rare vehicle.  I had an '85 model.  Why not find a later model weekender without the cabinets instead of ruining this one?  Based on what I've seen the Carat had the same interior as the weekender.
