Boarding the floor, whilst keeping the two long rails, insulation?

Featured Replies

Hi!  I'm hoping to board the floor whilst keeping the two long rails.  Has anyone done this and if so what insulation did you use - will be adding non slip flooring not carpets, all advice appreciated.  Regards  Janine

Don't know if this is of any use -

I took a seat out and found there was already plenty of insulation under the carpets.

Rojie, am intending to add a RR bed which slides forward on the two rails (yes it has been done, yes theirs was compliant, mine won't need to be as I am not having rear seats once converted).  Shawn, thanks so much, no I'm aware that I can't board over the thick insulation already fitted so was wondering what other people used but thank you anyway.

If I was trying to do this, I would just stick some polystyrene down the gaps the rails leave, remove the carpet, and cut/fit some lino.

 

Thanks Janine, sorry to be so nosey ! I hope your R an R have lap belts, even if they will never be used,
The MOT tester could fail you if not. DVLA has a few pages, if you are in doubt.

I had to change my plans or risk a fail.

 

Good Luck  Rojie

Hiya, no if I do it,  it's not going to have travel seats so will change the v5 to remove additional seats however if I pay for this conversion (frankly very little difference in cost) it will be compliant rgds Janine 🙂
