alickswud Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 i've just picked up an Elddis Autoquest 2006 on the Pug Boxer chassis and we have a slight problem, i'm looking at putting a swivel on the passenger seat but SWMBO is quite small and cannot touch the floor now let alone when the swivel is fitted. has any one got any ideas on making the seat lower? can i get a new base unit for it? fitting a swivel would be very useful if possible! thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnP Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I had the same problem and made a simple foot platform for the passenger side. It simply laid in the footwell. Covered with a bit of carpet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Chapman Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 There was a company that manufactured lower seat bases but I cannot find the reference. There is a problem with fitting different seat base heights where an airbag is fitted. This would probably be OK if the height of the seat base plus the swivel put the seat to the same height as standard. Have you thought of contacting Eldiss for advice? Regards, Mike.

Mike Chapman Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 alickswud - 2009-03-19 12:04 PM spoke to tony, new base with swivel and the seat will still be 2" lower :-D :-D :-D Is the leisure battery under the passenger seat and if so will fitting the lower seat base still give sufficient clearance?
