Is it possible to fit rear seats in a clio van? anyone done it and if so what is needed besides the seats?

cheers

well id imagine it is pretty hard to to, but then again, im sure you could create some holes in the floor and just space out the subframe holes needed then put some bolts in! But i have to ask the question, why?

No. You'd need to cut the floor out.

aight shweet. why? well cause im looking at a clio dci and they mostly have vans for sale in my price range so thought if it were possible id just buy a van and fit some rear seats .... oh well there goes that one.

Just buy a van and make rear passengers lie down in the back! Been there, done that!

You can do anything as nothing is impossible, but it comes at a price..

for the rear you would have to make some sort of a step as you would have in a normal clio, so the rear seats can be secured on, a good fabricator could do that for you, but again it will cost

lol ... funniest thing is i actually thought about that


yeah that kind of fabrication i wont get into, then i might as well put in the difference for a normal 3 door clio

the shell is the same as on any other clio .. more like a sport shell tbh due to having no sunroof.
you can fit rear seats there is a like a extension of the boot floor which is spot welded in place you have to grind the welds of if you want to fit seats.. from what i remember the floor carpet is the same to which saves alot of hassle .

nah mate tell me you joking ... now i got one of those situations where some say "no its not possible" and then some that say "yeah it is" ... do you know this for a fact? you done it?

Its possible although I dont think the mounting points for the seats are in, and it'd be a pain cutting the floor out.

yeah, however he did menion it was spot welded in ... therefor wouldnt be too much of a hassle ... but still id prefer no hassle at all :rasp:

i cant remember for certain.. but when i went to a scrap yard and saw a clio van with its side panel removed it looked the exact same as a normal clio just with a floor pan welded in
