 way weekender seat, that would be ideal.  one monster bed immediately

there is no way you can mount a passenger van 3 person rear seat or rear
weekender sofabed seat onto the middle tracks. unless you want to permanently
weld your sliding door closed ....
why dont you just mount a 2 person fold down middle seat in your westy?  this
is an easy conversion, plus i have a few of these seats, and tracks. any you
would boost your westy's resale value, not kill it by ripping out the
interior..
and by folding the middle seat down, it makes your bed/loading area bigger.
