Manufactured in France by Scopema, the RIB swivel plate for campervans gets lots of praise on the various forums. In our own experience, we have found these seat swivels to be very robust and rattle-free.
To rotate the seat, the engine must be turned off, vehicle put in gear and the handbrake released temporarily. Once the seat is facing the rear re-engage handbrake. For seats fitted with up/down height adjustment, you will find that you probably need to pump up the seat height to allow the seat to rotate without the grey plastic trim around the base catching on anything.
Important note:
This drivers swivel is not compatible with a double bench passenger seat.
This swivel from RIB is a seat swivel plus the components for the seat base. As such, the installation process is considerably more complex than that for swivel products on other vehicles. The drivers seat swivel also requires that you lower the handbrake.
This vehicle chassis is provided for many different manufacturers (Peugeot / Citroën / Opel / Toyota) who each provide their own seats designs with different trims for different models. As a result, you may need to adjust the plastic trim on your specific seat to allow the it to turn freely. Please examine the available fitting diagram carefully before purchase. This swivel will not work with a double passenger seat swivel.
