I've been looking into rear seating in my swb. I was wondering
if anyone had any recommendations for a reasonable price please?
I also found these;

What wrong with the normal folding bench seats?

Separate seats,one staggered either side with belts ,of
course,is what I have done; works well for me. Bench seats are
ok for kids,not so good for grown ups.
I guess it depends on the capacity you require. :-?

The ones in your link are probably about 5" too long for an 88".
I got a s/h pair of the old Trakkers (now Exmoor trim) forward
facing fold ups (the bog standard, not the child seat approved
ones) and fitted them facing backwards, thereby meaning
seatbelting could be a bit easier. Mind you, 1) a Series does
not require rear seatbelts, and 2) neither do rear-facing seats.

I've got the Britpart black vinyl bench seats in mine, very
impressed with them, went together well and fit nice in the back
of the landy, not too uncomfortable either and an okay price i
think

+1 on the cheap black vinyl bench.
Comfortable enough, very cheap and easy to fit.
Can fold them up or put stuff on them and they just wipe clean.
If they get ripped replacement cushions are about 12 quid.
Job done.

Thanks for the advice, looks like folding bench seats win, most
got to find a set locally now.
Thanks Mud

I've got a few lying around - mixture of 88 and 109 ones - not
sure where you are in the world, but if you can collect / sort a
relay you can have them.
