AUV Seat Conversion

[20vanda01]

sa tingin n'yo ok ba na ipa-convert ang two-facing bench ng AUV into one bench facing forward? who had done this? 'yong facing forward bench ay mapo-fold forward ba to give way for a cargo area just in case?

20vanda01,

'yong facing forward bench ay mapo-fold forward ba to give way for a cargo area just in case?

Yup, pwede siya ifold forward although mas liliit ang cargo space. Kung hindi ganun kalaki space kelangan mo and more on passenger convenience, ok mag convert to front facing. Kung kelangan mo from time to time ang malaking cargo space retain mo na lang yung jump seats.

Hindi ba yung Adventure ni miogi converted? Ginawang 2+2+3 ang seating parang U.S. minivan.

kaya ko natanong to dahil nung magbrowse ako may nakita ako from a malaysian (or a thailand) website and stock AUV nila ay naka front facing ang third row.

naisip ko lang na pag converted 'yon sa mga nasa pinas, hindi ba mahirap pumasok papunta sa third row? baka kasi 'yong sa ibang bansa, iba ang folding mechanism nila sa 2nd row seats para madali pumasok sa 3rd row.

they do that sa casa (sa INTECO meron). I've seen some XTO's and XUV's na facing forward. di ko lang alam kung pano folding ng 2nd row seats para makapasok sa 3rd row. saka may nakita nako sa Manila Bulletin offering that kind of conversion for crosswinds. di ko lang maalala kung anong shop yon. Better be prepared to have your flooring drilled kung magpapaconvert ka. kung di man drilled, baka spot welded yung brace/support na pagkakabitan ng chairs. in either case, both are corrosion starting points. might be a good idea to apply some primer coating or aluminum based paint dun sa spot na pinag weld-an or binutasan if it is drilled.

20vanda01,

Forward facing naman talaga ang intented third-row seats ng AUV's sa ibang markets. Yung higher-end models ng AUV's fold and tumble na ang right half ng 2nd row to facilitate access to the 3rd seat (just like in my Pajero).

wala kayang naka abang na mga bolts or butas para sa forward facing seats? yung sa patrol kasi namin pinaconvert ko ng forward facing, hindi naman ata ng welding or nagbutas. meron na kasing nakaabang.

boybi,

Depende iyan sa upuan na gagamitin. Iba-iba kasi ang designs na available dito sa atin.

Yung sa Patrol parating orig ang ginagamit diyan.

[boybi]

OTEP, what i mean to say is that aaaahhh, baka me nakatago nang mga butas or bolts sa ilalim ng carpet or side panels para kabitan ng forward facing seats. so kahit hindi orig, dun i-aadapt ng 3rd party seat manufacturer ang placement ng bolts. :D

20van,

d best to ask is isuzu alabang, napansin ko mga crosswind XUVi na nakadisplay lahat front facing ang third row, and most notable is yong tahi ng seat talagang pareho (kel seat). Kasi, pag sa labas, tyak, maiiba ang texture, and design. One thing, I did not ask or check, e kung foldable.

Balitaan mo na lang kami ha....
