Swivel Seat Base

What is a swivel seat base?

Thanks to the swivel base, the driver's or passenger's seats in the camper van or RV can rotate 360 degrees.

The swivel base is mounted under the driver's or passenger's seat, which raises the seat by a few centimeters.

Swivel bases allow for optimal use of the limited space in the RV by rotating the seats. The driver's and passenger's seats easily transform into a seating group by rotating them 180 degrees.

Advantages of a swivel base in the camper van:

• The pivot point is located in the center.
• Roller bearings allow for smooth rotation.
• Cables can pass through the pivot axis, which works even with seat heating, airbags, and other existing cables.
• The base is also compatible with the original passenger seat with height adjustment; height adjustability is retained.
• Installation without drilling or welding; the base is mounted between the seat base and the original slides with special screws.

Which brand of swivel bases do we usually use?

Due to their good price and wide range of models, we usually use Scopema swivel bases. It is a manufacturer that delivers high-quality results and guarantees the possibility of approval.

We have swivel bases available for all common models. If your desired model is not available, contact us at info@andorracampers.com.

Swivel base for double bench seat

We mainly work with the Scopema brand, which unfortunately does not have a swivel base for a double bench seat in its range.

Does the swivel base need to be approved by the MOT?

The answer is yes. Fortunately, the swivel base is one of the simplest components of a camper van conversion that needs approval. In Germany, you simply need to present the TÜV certificate from Scopema.

But how do you get this certificate? Simply send us an email at info@andorracampers.com after purchase, and we will send it to you.
