I want to watch TV & go camping by myself & am not ready to put a 3rd seat in,unless someone still makes a swivel seat. Thanks Jackson

Im lucky to have them but either way there is enough room for the seat to turn. I had a 200 dodge that when I was camping and hanging I would just flip it.

I keep a wrench under the seat just for that purpose. Out's is a '94 and the seat belt re-tractor is not attached to the seat but to the mount. Be aware that the factory mount leans to the rear as does the seat, so when you turn it around it'll lean down so you'll slide off into the floor if you don't have some way of raising it back to level.

I have a swivel seat base for Black Magic but have not tried to mount it. The current seats sit on big base risers. I haven't looked into how I could get the swivel to fit. It would be a lot easier for me to undo the four bolts and turn it around. I may just try that next weekend at the vannin.

I did the same thing in my Safari back in the 80's....
