Hi, is it possible at all to get front passenger bench seats for a Fiat Ducato (2016) that have some kind of reclining/lean forward functionality (or that could maybe slide forward slightly on rails ?!). Or could it be custom made (and still legal ?)

Cannot find any online so think it’s probably not possible but thought I would check!

Thanks
Malcolm

I took my double out and fitted a single on a swivel base.

We did the same. We used a drivers seat as the fixings are the same, seat belt needed swapping sides but it was much cheaper than a single passenger one!

What I am looking for is a 2 passenger seats in the front that can either recline or move forward towards the dash a bit (on a runner I guess ). Doesn’t sound like they exist but worth checking :-)

I do seem to remember that there is a passenger double that can swivel on some models, never appealed to me as I do like to be able to get to the back without going outside on a wet winter's night! :giggle:

I don’t think there’s any like that for the front of a Ducato.

Not for any of the Ducato/Citreon/Boxervans. There was no need as they come with a sliding door so no need for back rest on double seat to tilt either way.

Hi Malcolm
Did you have any success in getting the double passenger seats to move or tilt forward? I've got the same quandary, where I want to build a custom bulk head and not loose space on the living area due to the double seat. My other issue is I want the double seat to be interchangeable with a single for the occasional times where I take my nieces out.
Cheers
Justin

is this what you are looking for. I fitted one to my T5 but fitted a couple of extra washers to the front of the plates to help the seat back recline a bit further as they always feel to upright If you now what I mean.
At the time look also for a runner/tiltable but couldn’t find any as well.
