I put Eurovan seats into my '87 Westy and discovered they do not seem to go as far back as the stock seats so modified the seat rails to permit more rearward travel.� This can also be applied to the stock seats.� Pix in the middle of the second page of this Samba thread.

I have a bit of a funky knee, and it would be helpful if I could move
the seat back a bit - just driving around town I can feel it on my
knee, in the long run it may cause damage.� On a couple of other cars
I've just unbolted the tracks and moved them back 4-6" - but it seems
that on my Vanagon, the track is an integral part of the box the seat
is attached to.� Any suggestions, known fixes/mods that can change
this.� I have no problem fabricating anything, I weld, etc.
