We Fitted The SAFEST Drivers Swivel Seat Base In Our VW Crafter

[@GM-outdoor]

Ik heb deze set ook gekocht bij R&J. Kwalitatief echt een perfect product. Tevens zijn de medewerkers zeer vriendelijk en meewerkend.

[@UrbanVanlife]

helemaal met je eens, een grest product van een grest bedrijf, thsnks voor het kijken en reageren!

[@KristinaSmallhorn]

Was thins on your phone?? It looks super crispy.

[@UrbanVanlife]

no this was on the m50

[@goingmouch3753]

Mate...half way having a binge of your vlogs .... love it!!! Especially your patriotism to the UK 🇬🇧 👌🏻

[@UrbanVanlife]

I love the UK buddy I’m proud of our little land , most of the time lol . And thank you sir

[@goingmouch3753]

urban explorer Mate , you are ahead of the game with your flashing icon on my notifications...very cool

[@markespley147]

This vid has been so so useful for me - cheers very much!

[@UrbanVanlife]

well my friend if its only helped you then thats my job done , thanks mate and glad it helped

[@TheMartinlt1000]

Brilliant job, loving this series. What seats are you using - I need to replace mine?

[@UrbanVanlife]

Just the normal crafter seats we find them comfy

[@TheMartinlt1000]

@@UrbanVanlife cool. my van was a DHL delivery van so is missing the passenger seat completely.

[@johnbrady6756]

Another great video guys.

[@UrbanVanlife]

Thanks John, we just like people to know that they can give anything a try, if we can do it so can they 😃

[@andyo1966]

loving your channel guys... keep them coming...

[@UrbanVanlife]

Thanks Andy very much appreciated mate

[@BeanieDraws]

Nice little bit of editing there with the star bolts. Watching the banter has been definitely what I've needed. Though I will say, I'd have waaay too much fun swiveling that chair around.

[@UrbanVanlife]

Lol the chairs are cool arnt they nan . Iv notices you haven’t been about much mate I hope every thing is ok

[@T8RTU]

Top job and well worth taking the time to ‘show and tell’ as safety is absolutely on the money - M1 crash tested is the only option 😎👍

[@UrbanVanlife]

defo bud but the amount of people wanting to fit the cheap ones is amazing then strap there loved ones in to it , its crazy to me , but each to there own i guess

[@T8RTU]

Urban Explorer I’m amazed how many times I’ve seen ‘home made’ rear seats and diy rock and roll beds fitted with seatbelts on KZbin. The owners clear intention to use when traveling - imagine the whole shenanigans flying forwards in a crash. M1 tested only, every time.

[@anthonyellis1409]

Neil but could you drive with the pasnger seat still facing in the wrong way.

[@UrbanVanlife]

Not advisable mate

[@s23wd1v3r]

Nice,I would drill a hole in the base so that you can lock the seat with a padlock in the turned away position to prevent drive away theft

[@UrbanVanlife]

That’s not a bad idea that mate you could easily do that

[@philipcraighan7618]

Very informative. Thanks,

[@royw65]

Superb, ill check to see if they do T4 swivels..

[@UrbanVanlife]

im pretty sure they do mate , if the do ring them and mention you seen the video they may give you a bit of discount

[@wobbleboxadventures]

Just bought one of these and the double looking forward to fitting. 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍

[@UrbanVanlife]

There so easy mate . Heavy but easy fit buddy

[@wobbleboxadventures]

@@UrbanVanlife very heavy lol but now fitted. Double one tomorrow 👍

[@UrbanVanlife]

There not light are they mate

[@danielwearing8199]

Hi what year is your crafter. Do you know if this works with a 70 plate

[@UrbanVanlife]

best thing to do is ring them mate and speak to them , there really lovely and there allways coming up with new stuff

[@rexgeorg7324]

That was quality tutorial guys

[@UrbanVanlife]

thanks mate , hopefully some one who has no idea can follow along to this one , most will be ok but there is always some one needing a video about things

[@ianwass605]

Great guys 😂👍

[@BruceLauderdale]

Question... did you have to install 30mm longer arms?

[@UrbanVanlife]

The lowering bracket you need to install or the seat will catch on the hadbreak . If the breaks off it will turn but for £20 it’s worth doing I think

[@dillpatason6656]

Great video I was Talking about you at the weekend nothing bad all good

How do I get the link to the seat base provider mate. Please 👍

[@UrbanVanlife]

In the description of the video mate

[@saplumbing2342]

Hi pal where did you get your seat covers from?

[@UrbanVanlife]

Amazon bud . But the ones we got are not available so I took the link down but there are quite a few the same on amazon n

[@BarryBrowne-ln8bn]

Great video folks. Are you over west of ireland

[@UrbanVanlife]

We are actually back in England unfortunately for now as we had a few commitments and we are ever so slightly behind on the videos 😖 but we will return!!

[@HappyPlaceCamping]

You're great at these tutorials! Star bolts sounds like a technical term to me lol. I'd probably wear these seats out spinning around all the time. Now I feel dizzy just thinking about it lol.

[@UrbanVanlife]

Hahaha thanks guys . We love star bolrs mainly cos I get so many people in the comments correcting me so I just kind of do it more

[@HappyPlaceCamping]

@@UrbanVanlife 🤣

[@PattisArtInnaVan]

Lol lol it took me half the vid to figure out you were saying handbrake! I thought you were saying hambray and I just couldn't think of what that was 😁🤪😂😄

[@UrbanVanlife]

hahaha sorry mate , we are just fast talking daft english with strange accents . how are you doing im not in chromes patron any more so dont get to see you guys about

[@SweeneyDunston]

😂 The endings are always great. Any plans to swap out the double seat swivel bracket once this company has them available?

[@UrbanVanlife]

the double seat is from this company mate , we originay bought the double from then and then they gave us the single as well , there both super safe

[@dantheman9395]

Not sure if I could have those. I would get bored sitting in traffic and start spinning around. 🤪🤣🤣

[@UrbanVanlife]

hahaha with the cheap ones they havea handle and you can do that , but with this it would be a pain but sooooo much fun

[@KristinaSmallhorn]

🤣🤩🤣😂🤣

[@BruceLauderdale]

What have you done to your finger nail?

[@amoscardoza5253]

It's his new Van life gang tattoo!

[@UrbanVanlife]

Ahahah it is the sealant off the window that won’t come off . Appart from the grinder

[@truusjenskens8485]

So now you have to put the bolts back in all the time after swivelling? Is that the best of the UK? Have a look here, this is the part for a Crafter from Germany....this one turns around by a lever....who wants to put back bolts all the time? www.reimo.com/de/59644-dreheinheit_beifahrer_vw_crafter_2017/

[@aberdeendeltaforce]

Hilarious, total over the top big sell cause you got it for free, great vid though...👍

[@UrbanVanlife]

Yes we did got it for free but that’s after doing the video on the double swivel . WHICH WE PAID FOR . And I don’t see why any wouldn’t want people to buy the safest seat base out there I mean it’s not like we earn any commission for sales . It’s more about saftey and the fact that most of the seat bases people buy are not crash rated even tho they say they are .

[@aberdeendeltaforce]

urban explorer I can’t speak for everyone but there are million things that can kill you in a camper van collision long before the safety features of a swivel base kicks in. I’d be more concerned about the gas rupturing and fixtures coming at you from the back at 100mph in a serious collision because when that happens the safety and strength of the swivel is pointless. Your still dead?

[@UrbanVanlife]

all good points but rule in out the thing your strapped to flying out the window is only a bonus in my eyes , nothing can prepare you for the idiots on the road , but you can help your self by fitting safe goods

[@aberdeendeltaforce]

urban explorer I love it mate, don’t tell me greg Virgo didnt make any mistakes....he just didn’t film them.....your video style is awesome, just show it like it is, problems and all 👍
