Hi Guys,
I picked up a two seat original bench a while ago.
I'v completely stripped all the furniture out of the back of my van and want to put the bench against the right side (behind drivers seat).
My concern is where's safe to drill holes to bolt down into, I'll likely bolt the back of the seat to the side of van the too. Have seat belts to go on also.
Any words of wisdom?

If its a caravelle it will have all the floor bolt locations, try to use these if you can.

It is, but I was hoping to put them in different spot to enable a more flexible layout for other things.

No im not saying put the seat back in the original position, put it sideways on the right but use the factory floor bolt locations, these go through the crossmembers so are reinforced for safety. No need to bolt the seat back if the floor bolts are used.
