Hi All
New and very happy Bongo owner here.
I want to replace my current MPV 3/4 seats with a rock and roll bed.
However, I would prefer to have a Rock/Roll that can use the existing runners in the Van to be movable so I can get the most out of the floor space in the cabin. It would need to be compliant with all the necessary safety regulations etc.
So far I have found only one maker in the UK. Smart bed. Does anyone know of any others? Or companies who can do the coversion for me ? Im based in South East London and am ready to go .... but I need a decent bed.
Thanks!
Steve

The huge cost of these beds
I opted for a rear conversion with a flattened swivel seat, it works really well and offers a full width bed which is comfortable to sleep on. I am sure you could get your 3/4 seat flattened too?

Thanks - I saw their site yesterday and nearly fell off my chair - almost half the price of the Van!
Smart Bed seemed cheaper, and just as good. But I wondered if there are any other options/fitters fellow owners may know of
When you say a flattened swivel seat - what do you mean?
I have the two factory fitted ones and the kitchen was a side installation = hence the 3/4 width.
I can get a fix bed, but I would love one that can move along the cab - but if I need a small mortgage to have it, then fixed will have to do me.
I want a swivel for the front seat and so far only found New Dawn Conversions

If you know of someone or can weld yourself, plans for build your own rock and roll bed can be purchased on ebay for £10.00.

Was looking at this issue recently too and did notice a photo on Shotton iron works site https://www.shottonironworks.co.uk/prod ... -roll-bed/ that uses the rails to secure. Not sure about crash test quality etc. though.
