You may be in the wrong forum.

Just sayin'. Although truthfully, they prefer vans from the 60s and 70s. There are some good ideas there.

Some forward progress, and some backwards as well. First, the forward. I got the bed finished enough to be able to sleep on it this weekend. It is my first campout in this van, and while I've had it since July, I've been busy finding a place to live, moving us, and separately, moving my daughter. Basically, the bed has happened since Sunday. This is a 15 passenger, and 3 of the 4 bench seats are taken out. The front 15 inches of the bed does fold down, to allow a second seat to be in place when I'm not camping. I wanted to still carry some people if needed.
Now the backward, and a little back story. When I sold my house in June, it allowed for the purchase of the van, and about $1000.00 of accessories, mainly running boards and a stereo. I ordered it all right after I got the van, and the stereo sat until last week when I installed it. Truthfully, I never looked at it closely. I finished installing it late in the day, at sunset. I figured I'd learn how to work it the next day. During the "learning", I found that while it was close, it wasn't the model I had ordered. I then had contact with the Amazon vendor, who said that he ran out of the one I ordered, and sent the "current equivalent model", without telling me. Or asking either. He is, however, willing to take it back for a full refund, despite the length of time I've had it, or that it was installed. So, the stock unit went back in yesterday. So, it will not be a "bumpin' trip"(subwoofer reference) this weekend, but I do have a bed to sleep in.

Front seats chevy express
I found a set of frt seats that are power.... dont know if they work yet. I thought about taking a small battery out with me and checking.... before I purchase.... but the question is Will they physically bolt it..?
Without and modifications.... the year is 1996 . my van is a 2006....the seats are a lower back seat. They seem real comfy when i sat in them. Id like to be able to unbolt... and bolt right in mine.. any one know if thas possible ?
