Love the RL swivel, it clears the handbrake if you remove the plastic cover. Was going to buy the lowering kit, but as we only turn the seat occasionally, I decided to just remove the handbrake cover and replace it when I turn the seat back. Saves money.

In smaller cars kzitem.infoUgkxSRYZLHOTuxMO1hZD5z_fteeFGLKsBP5i it is a little wide and kind of difficult to reach the seat belt buckle in the car where the booster seat kind of covers it. But overall, it's great. The cup holders fold in if you want. My granddaughter loves it and is so excited to have outgrown her car seat. I am constantly reminded that she now has a booster seat, not a car seat. Will probably buy another for a different vehicle.

Update after fitting seat wobbles a little bit due to the movement in the swivel by rusty Lea. Also driving along and the cd started cutting out whenever seat moved when over a bump etc. So electrics probably affected in some way being caught need to check it out or get garage to have a look.

Hi there, I purchased one of these on the strength of how you can swivel in it from facing forward then to the rear without getting out, visa versa. I actually want it for my disabled partner to load her in from the ramp out of her wheel chair. I fitted one today in our 2012 T5 Caravelle, exactly as in this vid, hard to get it wrong TBH. I cant rotate it in the same manner you are showing. If I pull it forward enough so the arm rests clears the door pillar, I'm so close to the dashboard my knees are squashed against it, with jiggling back a tad, I can turn to be next to the drivers seat, then I can't go any further as my legs hit against the drivers seat. I managed to get it facing backwards by getting out, & turning it from behind, completely defeating the point of buying one. Am I doing something wrong? I know ours is wheelchair adapted, dropped floor but it is only the rear for the ramp. HELP 🙂if you get to see this if not, it's going back..

Hi, I’m sorry this is a problem for you. It is a lot easier to remove yourself from the seat and spin it, and certainly more difficult to do it whilst seated. If you notice in the video, there is a cut between me facing forward and backwards and it’s very likely that I left the chair and sat back in it for the purpose of the video. These aren’t designed to be used for disabled access, they are designed for spinning the seat when parked to create more living space when camping. I would suggest an alternative product designed for the purpose you wish to achieve. Kind regards, Leigh

Great informative video thanks! I want to change my T5 front bench seat to a single swivel passenger captain chair. My query is whether I can simply remove the twin bench and install a single seat base in its place and then put the rusty lee swivel on top of the newly installed single seat base? Any suggestions for what the resulting 'dead space' next to the single seat can be used for?
